Why isnt window.location.href= not forwarding to page using Safari?


My site lets users login via the Fb button, I'm using the FB / Parse.com JDK for this https://parse.com/docs/js/guide#users-facebook-users

Once the user has been identified, the below code logs the user in and forwards them onto a url. This works as expected under Chrome, but will not work using Safari, the page just stays on the fb.html page which is blank

I've seen that there were some historic issues with

window.location.href=

But, can't find a fix that works for my solution. Does anyone know a way around this?

Parse.FacebookUtils.logIn(null, {
    success: function(user) {
        if (!user.existed()) {

        } else {
            window.location.href="user_home.html";

        }
    },
    error: function(user, error) {

    }
});

Solution

  • Best way work in all browsers:

    setTimeout(function(){document.location.href = "user_home.html";},250);
