Code Help

[Colossal31]

Tried to make a forum block that signs you up for a usergroup. I have the template set to join the group and the join part works but for some reason it will not redirect to the Usergroup Roster Page i have created for that group. Any help will be appreciated. If need be I can post the code for the template too just to make sure I didnt screw anything in there up.

<a href="/roster.php?roster=EBAFreeAgent" onclick="document.getElementById('EBA').submit();return false;">
<img src='/images/ebasignup/ebasignup.png' width='240px' height='198px' alt=''>
</a>

So when they click on the link, it should submit a form somewhere...?
It's not clear what you exactly want. Might also want to remove "return false;" in the onclick.

OK the code above is the code for the Forum Block that has a button for them to click on and it puts them in a usergroup. When they click on it, I want it to redirect them to the roster.php?roster=***** page which is just a list of those people. Right now it places them in the usergroup but does not re-direct them to the roster page. Below is the custom html for the block template. I just want it to be click>>assign to usergroup id >>>> redirect to roster page for that usergroup.

<vb:if condition="$GLOBALS[forumid] == 50"><li>
	<div class="block smaller">
		<div class="blocksubhead">
			<a class="collapse" id="collapse_block_html_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}" href="{vb:raw relpath}#top"><img alt="" src="{vb:stylevar imgdir_button}/collapse_40b.png" id="collapseimg_html_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}"/></a>
			<span class="blocktitle">{vb:raw blockinfo.title}</span>
		</div>
		<div class="widget_content blockbody floatcontainer">
		<div id="block_html_{vb:raw blockinfo.blockid}" class="blockrow">
			{vb:raw content}
		</div>
		</div>
	</div>
	<div class="underblock"></div>
</li>
<form action="profile.php" method="post" id="EBA">
<input type="hidden" name="s" value="{vb:raw session.sessionhash}" />
<input type="hidden" name="securitytoken" value="{vb:raw bbuserinfo.securitytoken}" />
<input type="hidden" name="do" value="joingroup" />
<input type="hidden" name="usergroupid" value="197" />
</form>
</vb:if>

So does anyone see what I did wrong? I am sure I screwed something up. Just looking for a little help. Basically to break it down again. This forum block is displayed in Sidebar Anywhere on a specific forum. Once the individual clicks on the image they are assigned to UG 197 and should be redirected to a Memberlist page with just that UGs members shown that I have already created. The only part of the process that is not working is the redirect. Removing the return false; from the top code stops the UG Join. If anyone can aide me in figuring out what I did wrong please let me know, because this is driving me bonkers.

In your template code for the link ... shouldn't there be a . in front of /roster.php?

Or no leading slash.

Tried both but it still is not redirecting. The join still works but the redirect still fails.

Provide a link to the forum where the forum block is and a link to the roster page.

the forum block is to the right.

http://www.eliteteamplay.com/roster....r=EBAFreeAgent

That is the roster page.

The problem is that the hyperlink has an onclick which submits the form, you can't submit a form and go to a link at the same time. The form has to actually be submitted in order for the form to be processed.

You have to hook into profile_complete and redirect the user to that page when they are sending a request to join a group.
