jQuery location href [duplicate]

Question

I remember there's a redirect function in jQuery.

It was like:

$(location).href('http://address.com') 

But what was it exactly? I couldn't remember and can't find it using Google Search.

Answer 1

There's no need for jQuery.

window.location.href = 'http://example.com'; 

Answer 2

Use:

window.location.replace(...)

How do I redirect to another webpage?

Or perhaps it was this you remember:

var url = "http://stackoverflow.com"; location.href = url;
