Hi Nilis-H,

Thanks a lot for the update. 

Yes, I am trying to redirect to an external URL by just clicking a "submit"
button within a portlet. As you said for that I am attempting to load the
div with Ajax with contents from the external URL specified purely to
display it within the portlet window.

Can I attempt "IFrame" to fulfill the same purpose? 

Best Regards
Crishantha
