Laravel redirect from view to a route

rated 0 times [ 5] [ 6] / answers: 1 / hits: 21672 / 10 Years ago, sat, may 10, 2014, 12:00:00

I want to redirect from a view:

Route::get('/MyRoute', function () {

    return View::make('MyView');

});

In MyView I want to execute some JavaScript and then Redirect to a download:

// some imaginary javascript code, which will get executed



<?php



Redirect::to('/MyRoute2');

I can't seem to find a way, which will work. What am I doing wrong?

Of course I could change the /MyRoute to:

Route::get('/MyRoute', function () {

    return Redirect::to('/MyRoute2');

});

but then I can't execute some JavaScript code.

You have to use JS for that, inside your view. All php is handled before the page renders, so if you want to redirect after some js code you need to call the redirection from the client-side:

<script>

// your Imaginary javascript

 window.location.href = '{{url(yoururl)}}';

// or

 window.location.href = '{{route(myRoute)}}'; //using a named route

</script>
