Button link not going anywhere

Question

I am trying to make a button in a Modal take you to a new page but It wont change page.

Here is a pastebin for the whole lot - http://pastebin.com/2TBgYpbv

but the problem is this code here -

<button href="manager.php?staffname=<?php echo"$staffname";?>&ban=true" class="btn btn-primary">Confirm</button>

Please explain why it's not redirecting

Thanks in advance.

Answer 1

Change the button to an anchor. Keep the css classes etc. Or, add a button click handler to change window.location. I suggest the first option.

The button tag does not have an href attribute. Read more about button on w3schools
