Question

I’m trying to redirect to a relative url, like this

setTimeout(window.location.pathname = '/help/fusion/index.php#3', 500);

But the # seems to cause a problem when being passed to the window.location.pathname. The error is

‘The requested URL /help/fusion/index.php#3 was not found on this server.’

but the url that the browser actually displays is localhost/help/fusion/index.php%233#1. Anybody know how to avoid this?

Answer 1

You can use the window.location to redirect in javascript and pass a function to he setTimeOut function. Try this:

setTimeout(function() { window.location = '/help/fusion/index.php#3'; }, 500);
