Page redirect using jQuery
jQuery is not necessary, and window.location.replace(...) will best simulate an HTTP redirect.
It is better than using
window.location.href =, because replace() does not keep the originating page in the session history, meaning the user won't get stuck in a never-ending back-button fiasco. If you want to simulate someone clicking on a link, use location.href. If you want to simulate an HTTP redirect, use location.replace.
Example:
// similar behavior as an HTTP redirect
window.location.replace("http://domain.com");
// similar behavior as clicking on a link
window.location.href = "http://domain.com";
