JavaScript window.location.href code not working
I know this question has been asked a lot before, but none of the fixes worked for me. I made a window.location. href thing before and that worked but this one does not. I know the function runs because I tested it with an alert. Can someone see anything wrong here?
<form>
<input type="submit" name="agree" value="agree" onclick="fagree()">
<input type="submit" name="disagree" value="Decline and go to google" onclick="fdisagree()">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
function fagree(){
window.location.assign("index.html")
localStorage.setItem("Terms", "true")
}
function fdisagree(){
window.location.href="https://www.google.com/"
return false;
}
</script>
</body>

You can use button type instead of submit, otherwise, well, the form will be submit.
<form>
<input type="button" name="agree" value="agree" onclick="fagree()">
<input type="button" name="disagree" value="Decline and go to google" onclick="fdisagree()">
</form>
<script type="text/javascript">
function fagree(){
window.location.assign("index.html");
localStorage.setItem("Terms", "true"); //This line won't be executed, because the above line will reload the page
}
function fdisagree() {
window.location.href="https://www.google.com/"
return false; //This can be removed because the above line will redirect to google and the return false won't be executed
}
</script>
If you don't need any else form elements than those 2 buttons, you can get ride of the <form></form> and simply use <button>. In example :
<button type="button" name="agree" value="agree" onclick="fagree()">
<button type="button" name="disagree" value="Decline and go to google" onclick="fdisagree()">
