I am using a button on my form. How do I link to another web page/file when clicking on that link? Here is the code I tried, but does not work.

Answer 1

Try this

  <nav>
    <ul>
      <li><a href="#">button</a></li>
    </ul>
  </nav>

and this the css

nav
{
    position:fixed;
    bottom:350px;
    left:600px;
}

nav ul ul {
    display: none;
}

nav ul li:hover > ul {
    display: block;
}

nav ul {
    background: #FFD700; 
    box-shadow: 0px 0px 9px rgba(0,0,0,0.15);
    padding: 0 20px;
    border-radius: 10px;  
    list-style: none;
    position: relative;
    display: inline-table;
    color:black;
}

nav ul:after {
    content: ""; clear: both; display: block;
}

nav ul li {
    float: left;
}

nav ul li:hover {
    background:     #FFD700;
    color:white;
}

nav ul li:hover a {
    color:black;
}

    display: block; padding: 25px 40px;

}

nav ul ul {
    background:     #CFB53B;border-radius: 0px; padding: 0;
    position: absolute; top: 100%;
}

    border-bottom: 1px solid #575f6a;
    position: relative;
}

Answer 2

set the url you want to go in <form> action attribute. then use a submit instead of button.
Here is an example.:

 <form action="http://google.com">   
    <input type="submit" value="Google">
 </form>

You Can try this one

<script>
      function open_win() {
           window.open("http://www.google.com")
      }
</script>

Or you can also Do it like this

<script>
       function openWin() {
            myWindow=window.open('','','width=200,height=100');
            myWindow.document.write("<p>This is 'myWindow'</p>");
            myWindow.focus();
       }
</script>

<input type="button" value="Open window" onclick="openWin()" />
