How to open a new HTML page using jQuery?

Question

So, I am using IBM Worklight where I have the main file called file1.html and then I created another html file called file2.html.

I am trying to open file2 but no luck so far. I tried following pieces of code:

1. $(this).load("file2.html");

2. $("div1").load("file2.html"); //div1 is the id for outer div of file1

3. WL.App.openUrl("file2.html");

4. window.openURL("file2.html");

And none of these worked! Any suggestions?

Answer 1

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

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