Button to transfer to URi
Hi

Another famous mental block.. what is the code I need (I don't want a form tag) just to put a button on the page, like a submit one, when pressed it goes to a URi?

Thanks.

Why delete that post? That was perfectly valid code.

I thought I'd mis-interpreted the word URI

FWIW here it is again:

<button onclick="javascript:location.href='http://www.someurl.com'">Click Me</button>

Um, yeah, so what is the difference between URL and URI?

Uniform Resource Locator
Uniform Resource Indicator (>maybe? - and if so, what does it mean)?

A URI is a pointer to an object on the World Wide Web. The most common URI is the URL.

You mean on the internet, not only on the world wide web?

Thanks. It seems that URi = URL then.
