Javascript within Javascript question

[Ray]

I created a form which I placed in a .js file. The form works fine, but I need to redirect users to another page once the submit button is clicked.

<input type="button" onClick="document.location.href='http://www.google.com'" />

as you can imagine, the two slashes comment out whatever comes next.

My question is, how do I enter the url so that it isn't commented out?

Thanks

p.s. this forum has grown quite a bit, I'm not sure if this is the right section. Feel free to move this thread if necessary.

Do you just need to escape the slashes or have you tried just www. without the http:// ?

Try escaping them with backslashes:

http:\/\/www.google.com

I tried without http:// but it isn't working.

Here is what I'm using now, maybe my code is wrong somewhere?

'<input name="submit" type="submit" value="Continue" class="submit" onclick="document.location = 'www.google.com';"/>'

That is a relative location. You need at least "//" if not "http://" to specify that URL.
