Stu:
Btw, that's assuming that you are trying to do the re-direction in the
backend (controller). You can always of course send a message back to
your browser upon success of the ajax request and then invoke:
window.location('index.php'). I am thinking if you are doing
re-direction you are likely handling that in the php side of things
now.
Hope that helps.
Regards,
Alfredo
