location.href does not work in chrome when called through the body/window unload event
05:57 05 Aug 2011

Javascript - document.location or window.location or window.location.href or location.href does not work in Google Chrome 6 and 7(i didnt test lowers versions) when called from the window/body unload event. Both the ways seems to work fine with IE, Firefox and Safari browsers.

Through more testing i was able to see that this redirect actually works in chrome when done through a click event or any other. However when this is called in the body unload event. it does not work.

Sample Code:


    

    

        

    

I am still trying to find a way to have this working in Chrome... Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks, Nived
