redirect to another page

BPMan · Dec 4, 2002

I want to run a javascript that checks some criterion and then either just leaves the page be or goes to a different url..
so something like
<script>
if(criterion)
redirectTo(

http://www.whatever.com);

</script>

how do i do this?
what function would i use?
thanks

Hi BPMan

Here is some code you could use :

<html>
<head>
<script>

function criteria()
{
if(criterion)
{
windowopen();
else
{
windowopentwo()
}
}
}

function windowopen()
{
window.open("

http://somewebsite.com")

}

function windowopentwo()
{
window.open("anotherwebsite.com&quot

}

</script>
<head>
<body onload = criteria()>

</body>
</html>

Sorry, a typo

windowopen() should look like this:
function windowopen()
{
window.open("

http://somewebsite.com")

}

here's some syntax for you to work with
function goSomewhere() {
if (something == "&quot

{
location.href="another.htm";
}

I dare to learn more
