Hi,

I have written a JSP page that I am using as my own 'FrontEnd' for nowSMS. The JSP page sends an HTML form using the URL parameters of nowSMS.

This seems to work fine, but after submitting the message, the user is automatically redirected to the SubmitOK.html page to display the 'Message Submitted' information.

Is there anyway to set the page which is displayed after submitting a message?


Thanks,


Dave

Hi Dave,

There is a "ContinueURL=" parameter that you can specify in your request. But this parameter only sets the URL that is associated with the "Continue" link in SUBMITOK.HTM.

(By default, the "Continue" link is associated with javascript:history.back().)

The following link explains how you can modify SUBMITOK.HTM to use a META REFRESH tag to perform a redirect.

Do note that the PHP example referenced by that thread (as an alternative approach) is outdated, there is a better example here: http://support.nowsms.com/discus/messages/1/3692.html. Unforunately, I do not have a JSP example of same.
