G'day.
From Javascript, how do I follow a link?
Say I can grab the link using document.getElementById() how do I click on it?

[optomeb]

.click()

[autos06]

Excellent

Ikopar, are you sure?
I'm using firebug, and I can grab the element, but it doesn't have a click() method

[Ikopar]

Well it depends on the UA
The other option is to get the location and manually change to it

[kadamat]

Document.getElementsByTagName('a')[0].click is undefined.
But that returns <a href="/home/"
Using firefox
That's the only UA i need to support

[Ikopar]

So location=el.href; job done

[kadamat]

Ikopar: but it's a relative url, does that work?

[Ikopar]

Sure
It won't with base href in there
But otherwise

[kadamat]

How would I go about getting the base href?
