CakePHP redirect entire page instead of div - ajax

When I'm logging in with my CakePHP login function in the Users controller using ajax. The errors will be displayed in an Div above the login form. But when I have a successful login, I want to redirect the page to the homepage. When I'm using $this->redirect('home'); in the Users controller, the Div will only be updated.
How can I make sure that the entire page will be reloaded? I rather fix this problem with PHP than Javascript 'cause I'm using the Writebuffer method with the JSHelper.
Thanks!

This should be solved in client side. Because client browser gets the AJAX response and puts the output inside the DIV.
Although you can embed javascript code inside the AJAX response. For example, if login is incorrect, then put a window.location javascript code inside the output. But this is not a good solution.
Return an HTTP status code within AJAX response. If for example code is 401, then redirect.
if (data == '401') {
document.location.href="http://example.com";
}

how to create middleware in laravel

I have created the project which has login page login.blade.php which has only Regno to login-in.
once it login is the success it will redirect to home.blade.php and it followed by 4 more pages when clicking of next button in each page
page2.blade.php,page3.blade.php,page4.blade.php,page5.blade.php and finally, it should redirect to login page itself. The problem is the browser back button should not allow it to go back to the previous page.
can anyone suggest me how to create middleware for this?
thank you.
The browser's back button is not controlled by the server, where Laravel runs. There is no way for you to block it or interact with it in any way inside your PHP code.
What you can do is send XMLHHTTPRequest (XHR) with JavaScript. They ensure that on a button click you will stay on the same page in the browser and then your JS-code can read the server response (your rendered page templates) and replace the current content with the one from that response. You can read more on this when you google for AJAX, e.g. this article: https://www.sitepoint.com/use-jquerys-ajax-function/
Read this thing. I once implemented in the same way. By setting cache control in response header.

Joomla redirect after ajax request fails

An ajax request calls a controller function within my MVC Component.
And in this function there is a Joomla redirect at the end with
JFactory::getApplication()->redirect(JRoute::_($redirect_url, false));
The problem is, that the redirected page won't open! While debugging a session, I can see that the controller will initiate the redirect and the proper details will be sent to view.html.php. But the page, in this case it is a different view in tmpl, will not be open!
Is this because of the ajax call? Do I have to do something in the ajax success part?
Yes, now I do the url preparation in the controller and send back the url to ajax.
$redirect_url = "index.php?option=com_mycomponent&view=my_view&layout=different_layout"
Ajax will do the redirect with the given url.
window.location = result.data;
From there iam struggeling with the SEF part of Joomla to get a SEF friendly URL.

Scala Play - calling controller method from view doesn't load a new page

I display information, gather some user's input, and call a controller method using ajax/java script call from the view. However, instead of displaying a new/different html page, the controller method returns back to the original html page that I called jscript from.
Is this because of ajax call? How do I make sure that controller method would display the html file it's supposed to, instead of staying on old html page?
It sounds to me like what you want to do is to open a different url than the one you are on. To do that you do not use ajax. Instead try using javascript to change window.location to tell the browser to go to the url (or 'call your controller'). It looks like this:
window.location.assign("/your/controller/url"); // or
window.location = "/your/controller/url";
There is more to read about it here: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Window.location
You can think of ajax as a separate little browser that lets you call the web server but letting you handle what comes back with javascript rather than always showing it to the user. So if you want to do the call with ajax but get the response HTML into your page, you are responsible for taking that response and inserting it into the DOM.

Handling redirects with Codeigniter and jQuery mobile?

I'm building a mobile web app with jQuery mobile and Codeigniter & TankAuth. When a user logs in or out, they are redirected from the TankAuth login/logout controller to a page of my choice. The problem is that while the ajax navigation loads the page in question, the URL to the TankAuth controller stays the same.
There is quite a lot of code involved, so I will describe it the best I can:
Consider the variable $this->session->flashdata('prev_page') is page1.
The TankAuth login controller is called first time via auth/login, loads login form view.
The form is submitted to the same controller which then processes it and redirects to necessary page:
if ($this->tank_auth->login(
$this->form_validation->set_value('login'),
$this->form_validation->set_value('password'),
$this->form_validation->set_value('remember'),
$data['login_by_username'],
$data['login_by_email'])) {// success
redirect($this->session->flashdata('prev_page'));
}
jQuery mobile loads page1 via AJAX but the URL remains as auth/login.
How do I fix this? Please let me know if you need any more info.
If my understanding about your problem is correct, you are using ajax for authenticating mobile users and normal redirect method for big screen users.
If that's the situation, then this will do the magic:
if ($this->tank_auth->login(
$this->form_validation->set_value('login'),
$this->form_validation->set_value('password'),
$this->form_validation->set_value('remember'),
$data['login_by_username'],
$data['login_by_email']))
{// success
$this->load->library('user_agent');
if($this->agent->is_mobile()) {
echo $this->session->flashdata('prev_page');
//Now this value 'll reach ajax when authentication is success.
//Inside Ajax:
//success: function(data) {
// validate data for checking if user is logged in or not.
// if(login_is_success)
// window.location.href = data;
//}
}
else
redirect($this->session->flashdata('prev_page'));
}
I added data-url="true" to the the form in opening <form> tag in question, everything worked fine from there.

Refresh div (Wordpress comments) with ajax

What I'd like to do is have a button that you can click to refresh the comments section without reloading the page.
This seems like it should be simple to do, but I just can't get my head around Ajax.
(no button just yet, just an interval)
setInterval(function(){
$(".commentswrapper").load("html");
}, 10000);
Failed to load resource: the server responded with a status of 404 (Not Found)
localhost:8888/post-title/html
(http:// omitted from link because SO won't let me wrap it in code tags or post it otherwise)
Shouldn't that just refresh the html of that div?
The jquery load method requests a page of HTML and puts it in your div. the parameter you give is a URL from your server. In your example, it is requesting a URL of "HTML", which doesn't exist in Wordpress.
To get this working, you would have to write a new server script, e.g. Getcomments.php which returns the comments for the current page.
This isn't trivial unless you've done some server side programming in php and are familiar with the Wordpress codex,
