Redirect user after clicking on save button

Question

I have an <a> tag on the page like below:

<a href="/-/media/Wallpapers/wallpaper_nokia.jpg" download="">Download Wallpaper</a>

When the user clicks on the link the save as button opens up for the user to save the image. What I want to do is to redirect user to the home page after user clicks on the save button.

Is there any way to achieve this in javascript?

You can check if the downloaded file exists, but it will be not after clicking save, only after the download is completed. — Hagai Wild, Jan 03 '19 at 08:09

Yes there is:

// similar behavior as an HTTP redirect
window.location.replace("http://stackoverflow.com");

// similar behavior as clicking on a link
window.location.href = "http://stackoverflow.com";
