// Using the window.location assigned with a DOMString (URL)

window.location = 'https://www.example.com';

// Using the href property of the Location object

window.location.href = 'https://www.example.com';

// Using the window.location.assign() method

window.location.assign('https://www.example.com');

// Using the window.location.replace() method

window.location.replace('https://www.example.com');

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

//// Auto-Refresh ///

///////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////

// Using the window.location.reload(forcedReload) method

// The optional parameter forcedReload accepts a boolean value

// If it is set to true, the page is downloaded from the server

// If the value is false, the page is reloaded from cache

// The following code demonstrates the auto-refresh

function autoRefresh(intervalInMilliSeconds) {

// Using setTimeout()

setTimeout(window.location.reload(), intervalInMilliSeconds);

/******* OR *******/

// Using setInterval()

setInterval(window.location.reload(), intervalInMilliSeconds);

}

// Run the function onload of the page

autoRefresh();

/******* OR *******/

//A redirect is when a web page is visited at a certain URL, it changes to a different URL.

//This can be done for many reasons like moving your domain to a new one or You have built-up various pages based on browser versions or their names or may be based on different countries.

//Most popular way to redirect to another webpage using JavaScript is location.href and location.replace

function Redirect() {

window.location = "https://www.google.com";

}

//For an auto refresh you would use the following script

function AutoRefresh( t ) {

setTimeout("location.reload(true);", t);

}

//Please look at the page-redirect.md file to see where you would include these scripts
