Question

$("#footer_privacy_policy").click(function(){

    window.location = "aboutus.php";    

    $(window).load(function(){

              alert("window is loaded");

             $(".about").load("./about/privacy_policy.txt");
     });
}); 

So I loaded the page “aboutus.php” when I perform a click on the id,
but the alert never pops up.
Any one could help with this problem?

Answer 1

As soon as you set the url with window.location, the page is reloaded so the $(window).load() never happens as it is inside the click event callback.

Is there a reason you are using window.location instead of relying on the href attribute and linking to a page with the content already inside?
