Answer 1

Whatever value you provide for the Source Query String variable is where the user will end up.  For example:

http://servername/sitename/Lists/listname/NewForm.aspx?Source=/default.aspx

will send the user to default.aspx in the root site.

Answer 3

Hi Ron,

As Marc mentioned in the previous post, you need to use the "source" query string. You can use your custom aspx page as the value for the "source" query string. The user will be redirected to that custom page.

Answer 5

You bet, Ron.  You may need to check that the actions on the form button include __redirectsource if you aren't returned to the Source location.

Answer 7

Hi Marc

I am not redricting to source page.

here is page when user click Add New

<a href="./AddClearnace.aspx?Source=./clearance.aspx"><img alt="" src="/_layouts/images/ICONGO.GIF" height="15" width="15" border="0"/>Add New</a>

In AddClernace.aspx page

<input type="button" value="Save" name="btnSave" onclick="javascript: {ddwrt:GenFireServerEvent('__commit;__redirectsource')}" />

but i get 404 error 

did  i miss something here

Thanks Ron

Answer 8

Ron:

You're getting the 404 error because ./clearance.aspx is not a valid path.  The best way to do this is to set up a parameter that reads the current URL:

<ParameterBinding Name="URL" Location="ServerVariable(URL)" DefaultValue=""/>

and then use that parameter as the Source:

<a href="./AddClearance.aspx?Source={$URL}"><img alt="" src="/_layouts/images/ICONGO.GIF" height="15" width="15" border="0"/>Add New</a>

This way, the redirection will always come 'home' again, regardless what you may rename the page or where you might move it.

Thanks Ron

Answer 10

SharePoint Desginer *may* strip it out if you don't have the URL parameter defined correctly.  At least that's the only thing I can think of.  I haven't seen that happen.
