How to open a new url in current tab? - JAVASCRIPT

Question

I have tried a lot of different methods. But all of them lead to the url opening in a new tab. Using javascript, how can i do this?

(no jQuery please, this is a school project and we haven't had jQuery as a lesson yet)

this is the function i'm working with:

function myFunction() {
            window.open('project.html', 'toolbar=0, location="_self", menubar=0');
            target = "_self";
            }

Answer 1

You're looking for the location property:

location = ...;
