Use window.open("file2.html");

Answer 2

use window.open("file2.html"); to open on new window,

or use window.location.href = "file2.html" to open on same window.

Answer 3

You need to use ajax.

http://api.jquery.com/jQuery.ajax/

<code>
$.ajax({
  url: 'ajax/test.html',
  success: function(data) {
    $('.result').html(data);
    alert('Load was performed.');
  }
});
</code>

Answer 4

If you want to use jQuery, the .load() function is the correct function you are after;

But you are missing the # from the div1 id selector in the example 2)

This should work:

$("#div1").load("file2.html");
