Redirection On Ajax Success Using Window.location.replace()

I am trying to redirect the page on the successful ajax call, the following code works fine, $.ajax( { type: 'POST', url: path, data: response1, conte

Solution 1:

The problem was that I was not specifying the protocol,

window.location.replace(window.location.protocol + "//" +
                                  window.location.host + "/configuration/manage_users")

worked fine, I found out that,

window.location = window.location.protocol + "//" +
                                         window.location.host + "/configuration/manage_users"

is better for redirection.

Solution 2:

Normally you could do this from server. You have to respond correct HTTP headers. What is your back end technology? In node.js it will look like this:

var host = 'http://172.16.17.141:81'
response.writeHead(302, {
  'Location': host + '/configuration/manage_users'
});
response.end();

Solution 3:

Would this work?

$.ajax
  type: 'POST'url: path
  data: response1
  contentType: 'application/json'success: ->
    window.location = "//#{window.location.host}/configuration/manage_users"
