  1. POSuccessful ajax post to spring security doesn't redirect
    text
    copied!<p>Folks, I have a problem where a successful ajax POST (200) request to j_spring_security_check doesn't redirect correctly to a success.jsp page - which is in the same directory as the login page. The login.jsp page just redisplays - and I can't figure out why (Please note, I'm fairly new to ajax).</p> <p>Following is the content of my login.jsp page. Any help would be greatly received:</p> <pre><code>&lt;%@ page contentType="text/html;charset=UTF-8" language="java" %&gt; &lt;html&gt; &lt;head&gt; &lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jquery/2.0.0/jquery.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt; &lt;%--&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://ajax.googleapis.com/ajax/libs/jqueryui/1.10.3/jquery-ui.min.js"&gt;&lt;/script&gt;--%&gt; &lt;title&gt;Money Tracker - Logon&lt;/title&gt; &lt;/head&gt; &lt;body&gt; &lt;div&gt; &lt;header&gt; &lt;/header&gt; &lt;section&gt; &lt;div id="dialog" title="Login"&gt; &lt;form id="login"&gt; &lt;label for="userName"&gt;User:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="userName" type="text" name="userName"&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;label for="password"&gt;Password:&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="password" type="password" name="password"&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;label for="rememberMe"&gt;Remember me&lt;/label&gt; &lt;input id="rememberMe" type="checkbox" name="rememberMe"/&gt; &lt;br&gt; &lt;button type="submit"&gt;Login&lt;/button&gt; &lt;/form&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;/section&gt; &lt;/div&gt; &lt;script&gt; function ajaxLogin(form) { var userName = form.userName.value; var password = form.password.value; var rememberMe = form.rememberMe.value; $.ajax({ cache: false, type: 'POST', url: "/server/j_spring_security_check", crossDomain: true, async: false, data: { j_username: userName, j_password: password, _spring_security_remember_me: rememberMe }, beforeSend: function (xhr) { xhr.setRequestHeader("x-ajax-call", "true"); }, success: function (result, xhr) { alert("Request was success. Status is: " + xhr.status); if (result == "ok") { alert("Result was OK. Status is: " + xhr.status); window.location.href = "success.jsp"; } else { alert("Result was not OK. Status is: " + xhr.status); location.href = "loginFailed.jsp"; } }, error: function (xhr) { alert("Error with request. Status is: " + xhr.status); location.href = "loginFailed.jsp" }, complete: function(result) { } }); } $(function () { $("#login").submit(function () { ajaxLogin(this) }); }); &lt;/script&gt; &lt;/body&gt; &lt;/html&gt; </code></pre>
