jQuery $(document).ready() not firing after window.location.href

Question

I have two pages, on the first page after an event happens I change the location of the page by using:

window.location.href = "/pageb";

On the second page, I have a document ready event that doesn't fire when coming from the page above. The ready event works when the page is browsed to normally.

$(document).ready(function() {
     alert('ready');      
});

I am using the google ajax cdn to include jquery on my pages. I'm stumped...

it should fire the ready function, just make sure that the jquery is loading successfully — Amr Elgarhy, Mar 02 '10 at 17:29
yes be sure javascript is not broken ... use firebug if not yet using — Luca Rocchi, Mar 02 '10 at 17:32
Yes, the effect is the same on all browsers and I confirmed jquery is loading using firebug. — jimj, Mar 02 '10 at 17:37
Who up votes these vague questions that have way too little detail to fix the problem. Either paste the full code, give some links to your pages or replicate the issue at jsbin.com. — redsquare, Mar 02 '10 at 20:46

It works for me, though I'm using jQuery (1.4.1) from my server, and I use :

window.location = "/index.html";

I don't see why it would change anything, but maybe you could try anyways ?
