Redirecting a web page means, taking the user to a new location. Many websites uses redirects for many different reasons, e.g. Some websites redirect users from the old domain to new domain, some redirect from one page to another e.g. a more relevant page. If you are a Java programmer and worked previously with Servlet and JSP, then you might be familiar with SendRedirect and Forward methods, which are used to redirect users in web applications. Actually, there are two kinds of redirect, Server side redirect, and client-side redirect. In Server side redirect, the server initiates redirection, while in a client-side redirect, the client code does the redirection. Redirecting a web page using JavaScript and JQuery is a client-side redirection.
