setTimeout not working although works in another similar script

After inserting some text into a div I call setTimeout() with a redirect which doesnt work, I'm using an almost identical script I use in another project which does work, I do not undrstand why?

script that works

$.getJSON("http://newberylodge.co.uk/webapp/includes/login1.php",{username:childsname,password:password},function(json)   {

    if(json.result === "success") {

        $("#add_err").html( "Welcome "+childsname+"!");

        setTimeout(function(){
              window.location= "menu.html"; 
        },2000);                          

    }else{
        $("#add_err").html(json.message);
    }
});
    }

script that isnt working

$.post("includes/addVolunteer.inc.php",{volunteerName:volunteerName,volunteerCity:volunteerCity, volunteerCounty:volunteerCounty,volunteerService:volunteerService,volunteerEmail:volunteerEmail},function(json)   {

    if(json.result === "success") {

        $("#volunteerReport").html(json.message);

                setTimeout(function(){
              window.location= "view.htm"; 
        },2000); 


    }else{
        $("#volunteerReport").html(json.message);
    }
});
    }

I have checked for errors in console and there are none being shown

you can try like this

$.post("includes/addVolunteer.inc.php",{volunteerName:volunteerName,volunteerCity:volunteerCity, volunteerCounty:volunteerCounty,volunteerService:volunteerService,volunteerEmail:volunteerEmail},function(json)   {

    if(json[0] === "success") {

        $("#volunteerReport").html(json.message);

        setTimeout(function(){
            window.location= "view.htm"; 
        },2000); 


    }else{
        $("#volunteerReport").html(json.message);
    }
});
    }

I'm not sure but it's helpful to you.
