script to redirect message box to URL

remy_ · #1 (**permalink**) 10-17-08, 01:31 PM

Hello,

Hope somebody can help me.

How the script will be if i want to popup message box when people click a button/textlink/image on my webpage.

In the message box, i want to put some text/information for example ; Thank You!

And, when people click 'OK' button on message box, i want to redirect them to other URL for example ; http://abc.com.

Is it possible to be done?

If anybody know, appreciate if you can write a full script (javascript or what?) so that i can starting from popping up the message box till redirect to other URL.

Thanks in advance.

javascript Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function popup()
{
    if (confirm('Thank you!')
    {
        window.location = 'http://www.abc.com';
    }
    else
    {
        // User pressed "cancel"... do something?
    }
 
    return false;
}
//-->
</script>
 
<a href="#" onclick="return popup();">Click me</a>

My bad, a little typo. This line:

Code:

if (confirm('Thank you!')

... should read:

Code:

if (confirm('Thank you!'))

(Note the second parenthesis at the end)

If I understand you, this way can solve yoru problem.

First you can add a JavaScript file to your solution. And add this code to it:

Code:

function MyWindow()
{
    var pen = window.open("http://www.gurkanalkan.com","Besiktas JK","width=300,heigth=200,top=100,left=100");

}

For example you can add an HTML page to use it.

Code:

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Transitional//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-transitional.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
    <title>Besiktas sen bizim her seyimizsin!!..</title>
    <script src="JScript.js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>
<body>

    <p>
        <input id="Button1" type="button" value="button" onclick="MyWindow();" /></p>

</body>
</html>

sorry..i don't understand what do u mean..and what to do..

i think what Nico said is very close to what i want.
the only thing is, it still not working as intended

I added the missing parenthesis, and it's working fine for me now.

Code:

<script type="text/javascript">
<!--
function popup()
{
    if (confirm('Thank you!')
    {
        window.location = 'http://www.abc.com';
    }
    else
    {
        // User pressed "cancel"... do something?
    }

    return false;
}
//-->
</script>

<a href="#" onclick="return popup();">Click me</a>

Did you change the "Thank you" text to something else?

Of course my solution is not the answer you desire. It is an idea for you.
