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 Nils-Helge Garli wrote: > > Unfortunately, you can't make an ajax request to the portlet.
