crawforddavid2006 · Jun 17th, 2005, 9:46 PM

Is it even possible to make a button with a hyperlink in java script?

<script type='text/javascript'>
var iP=document.createElement('input');
iP.setAttribute('type','button');
iP.setAttribute('value','Rawr');
iP.onClick=iHateU();
function iHateU(){
document.location="www.pr0n.com";
}
document.body.appendChild(iP);
</script>

Will that run? iHateU() isn't defined 'till after it is referenced?

It won't.

I didn't evaluate that code for workability. Javascript functions do not have to be declared before they're referenced. They DO have to be declared before they're invoked.

I would personally just do this:

(Toggle Plain Text)

<form action="http://www.example.com/" method="post">
    <div><input type="submit" value="Go!" /></div>
</form>

I would use PHP and just do this...

[php]
<?php
// I have no idea if this is an actual site...
header("Location: http://www.gaysex4u.com");
?>
[/php]

This could be done in just html

HTML:

(Toggle Plain Text)

<form>
<input type="button" value="Click here" onClick="parent.location='http://www.programmingforums.org'">
</form>
