Answer 1

Unless you're submitting the form with AJAX then submitting will take the user to a new page, so you can't do a javascript redirect.

You could redirect on the server side, or change the action of the form.

Answer 2

Use ajax to submit the form. Then onSuccess callback, set window.location = new_url.

Answer 3

Req.write('location.href="page.py?fn=xxx";')

at the end of the python function that to be executed while submit

thnx all
