After submit goto certain webpage

[DH]

I have built an order form with a send order now button that when pushed validates the order and then uses email to send the order info. I would like to automatically goto another page once the order info is emailed. This is what I have so far:

<FORM NAME=&quot;orderform&quot; form method=&quot;post&quot; ACTION=&quot;mailto:email@site.com&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot; onSubmit=&quot;return validate()&quot;;>

Any suggestions or code examples on how to automatically have another page load after order info is emailed? Thanks.

hey! try this (btw, havent tested it or anything, but go ahead and try anyway)

<FORM NAME=&quot;orderform&quot; form method=&quot;post&quot; ACTION=&quot;mailto:email@site.com&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot; onSubmit=&quot;return validate(); self.location='

http://www.next-page.com';&quot;>

btw, make sure you include the http:// in your URL.

I think that onsubmit if fired before the form submits (it should be called onbeforesubmit maybe and if that's true, then going to another page would probably be a problem, because the form would never get a chance to actually submit... try using:

function waitASec()
{
setTimeout(&quot;window.location='page2.htm'&quot;,1000)
}
onsubmit=&quot;waitASec()&quot;

or something like that. jared@aauser.com

hey jared, so this wouldnt work?

<FORM NAME=&quot;orderform&quot; form method=&quot;post&quot; ACTION=&quot;mailto:email@site.com&quot; enctype=&quot;text/plain&quot; onSubmit=&quot;return validate(); self.location='

http://www.next-page.com';&quot;>

Was not able to get either suggestion to work. Any other suggestions would be appreciated. Form info emails okay, but page never advances.
