onclick question

Hello

Here s my question of the day, I am opening a contact form using modal box of mootools. That works fine, now, when the user clicks "send", i can get it to close the box

<input value="send" type="submit" onclick="window.parent.document.getElementById('sbox-window').close(); "/>

PHP:

Now the problem is, how can i , on click, close the box and redirect the parent page to a "tks for your email page ".


I ve tried many things but it always do the redirection in the lightbox and it does not close the window anymore

Any help is very welcome

 

window.opener.location.href = 'http://www.amazon.com';

PHP:

 

hello

where would you insert it in the code of the first post, so that it closes the lightbox and forward the user to amazon?

 

You have a popup ( or simply a new window, opened by another window ) and you close it by pressing Close button, right ? Now, instead of using your current onClick event, create a JS function, containing your current onClick + the one I pasted earlier ( Close event should be AFTER redirect ).

<script type="text/javascript">
function CloseRedirect() {
	window.opener.location.href = 'http://www.amazon.com';	// Redirect
	window.parent.document.getElementById('sbox-window').close();	// Close
}
</script>

<input value="send" type="submit" onclick="CloseRedirect()"/>

PHP:

 

Just tried, i ve tested only the close function in the js, it works, then i ve tried with the full thing, it does not work, it does not redirect and it does not close the lightbox :-/

 

it actually tries to redirect but inside the lightbox

 

How do you open your "lightbox" ( via JavaScript or _blank ) ?

 

javascript

 

finally got the right answer from chronoengine forum

onclick="window.parent.document.location = 'new url here'"

PHP:

it works

tks
