How to send user to page after clicking print button

Question

<button type="button" onClick="window.location.href='http://mywebsite.com';window.print();return false;">Print</button>

Above works but I want to print first, then have a short delay and then send the user to the specified page.

I tried this without success:

<button type="button" onClick="setTimeout('window.location.href='http://mywebsite.com', 100);window.print();return false;">Print</button>

Answer 1

this code requires jquery http://jquery.com/

Please note that setTimeout() is in milliseconds, and a delay of 100 ms will not be noticeable by the user.

<button type="button" id="print_button">Print</button>

<script>
$().ready(function() {
  $(document.getElementById('print_button')).click(function() {
    window.print()

    setTimeout(function() {
       window.location.href = 'http://mywebsite.com'
    }, 5000)

    return false
  })
})
</script>

Answer 2

Try this code, this is the same code you have used, i have just edited it

<button type="button" onClick="setTimeout('window.location.href=\'http://www.google.com\'', 3000);window.print();return false;">Print</button>
