Does Javascript have the distinction of page forward and page redirect?

Question

JSF ensure

<h:commandXxx action="index.xhtml"> 

to page forward, and

<h:commandXxx action="index.xhtml?facesredirect=true">

to page redirect.

How to perform these two operations with Javascript?

Answer 1

No.

Just send a request to server in such way that the server applies exactly the desired behavior.

E.g.

location = "index.xhtml";

location = "pageWhichRedirectsToOtherPageWhichForwardsToThatPage.xhtml";
