How to make an input type=button act like a hyperlink and redirect using a get request? [duplicate]

Answer 1

There are several different ways to do that -- first, simply put it inside a form that points to where you want it to go:

Second, use a stand-alone button with javascript:

This however, will fail in browsers without JavaScript (Note: this is really bad practice -- you should be using event handlers, not inline code like this -- this is just the simplest way of illustrating the kind of thing I'm talking about.)

The third option is to style an actual link like a button:

    Go to my link location

This has the advantage of working everywhere and meaning what you most likely want it to mean.
