window.location not redirecting in AJAX

Question

I'm trying to redirect a user after a form submission with AJAX. I tried using window.location.assign, window.location.href and both didn't work.

When this function is triggered i receive the following text in Google Chrome console (This line refer to console.log(response), response is the url i get back from funcaoCla.php):

../usuario/cla?claatualizado

My JS function:

function funcaoCla(){
  var nomeCla = $("#nomeDoCla").val();
  var tagCla = $("#tagDoCla").val();
  var corDoCla = $("#corDoCla").val();
  if (verificaCla()){
    $.ajax({
      async: false,
      url: '../modulos/funcaoCla.php',
      type: 'post',
      data: {'cadastrar_cla':'cadastrar_cla', 'nomeCla' : nomeCla, 'tagCla' : tagCla, 'corCla' : corDoCla},
      success: function(response){
        console.log(response)
        window.location.assign(response)
      },
      error: function(response){
          console.log("ERRO")
          console.log(response)
          alert("Algo pode ter dado errado, atualize a pagina e tente novamente!")
      }
    })
  }else {
    return false;
  }
}

Perhaps you could give the smallest reproducable case so that we can run it ourselves? The only runnable part of your code snippet is `window.location.assign(response)` and that works from my side. — PaulBGD, Jun 19 '17 at 22:11
or `window.location.href = response` , but that depends on what `response` is, is it an URI ? — john Smith, Jun 19 '17 at 22:13
Most likely you have a form that is refreshing the page before the ajax success runs. — Kevin B, Jun 19 '17 at 22:14

@KevinB My form have a return, so just reload after some return from Ajax, i don't think is this but i'm not 100% sure. Have some way i can test this? — , Jun 19 '17 at 22:36
@JoãoZanetti but you only return if not doing ajax. you shoudl always return false if you don't want the form to default submit. — Kevin B, Jun 19 '17 at 22:54
@KevinB I learned it in the hard way. I put a return false at the end of if and it worked. — , Jun 19 '17 at 22:58
