How to redirect to another page in node.js [duplicate]

You should return the line that redirects

return res.redirect('/UserHomePage');

Ok, I'll try to help you using one my examples. First of all, you need to know I am using express for my application directory structure and for creating files like app.js in an automatically way. My login.html looks like:

...<div class="form"><h2>Login information</h2><form action="/login" method = "post">  <input type="text" placeholder="E-Mail" name="email" required/>  <input type="password" placeholder="Password" name="password" required/>  <button>Login</button></form>

The important thing here is action="/login". This is the path I use in my index.js (for navigating between the views) which look like this:

app.post('/login', passport.authenticate('login', {    successRedirect : '/home',     failureRedirect : '/login',     failureFlash : true}));app.get('/home', function(request, response) {        response.render('pages/home');});

This allows me to redirect to another page after a succesful login. There is a helpful tutorial you could check out for redirecting between pages:

To read a statement like <%= user.attributes.name %> let's have a look at a simple profile.html which has the following structure:

<div id = "profile"><h3>Profilinformationen</h3>    <form>        <fieldset>            <label id = "usernameLabel">Username:</label>            <input type = "text" id="usernameText" value = "<%= user.user.username %>" />            <br>        </fieldset>    </form>

To get the the attributes of the user variable, you have to initialize a user variable in your routing.js (called index.js in my case). This looks like

app.get('/profile', auth, function(request, response) {    response.render('pages/profile', {        user : request.user    });});

I am using mongoose for my object model:

var mongoose = require('mongoose');var bcrypt   = require('bcrypt-nodejs');var role     = require('./role');var userSchema = mongoose.Schema({    user             : {        username     : String,        email        : String,        password     : String    }});

Ask me anytime for further questions...Best regards,Nazar

In another way you can use window.location.href="your URL"

e.g.:

res.send('<script>window.location.href="your URL";</script>');

or:

return res.redirect("your url");
