how can I set timeout? mean I want to redirect page after 5 seconds of form submission

You have to use `success` paramaeter of option. Where you can do your timeout activity. — GhanuBha, Jul 07 '20 at 13:46
actually I want to redirect if no success response received. like if there is timeout error on php side — Gulzar Ali, Jul 07 '20 at 13:52
@GulzarAli: The options being passed to `.ajaxForm()` also include an `error` handler function. — David, Jul 07 '20 at 14:10

So set success and use a timeout

$("#foo").ajaxForm({
    success: function(res, status, xhr, form) {
        window.setTimeout(function(){
          window.location.href = "http://www.example.com";
        }, 5000);
    }
});

`location.href = ...` is not a redirect. `location.replace(...)` is. – D. Pardal Jul 07 '20 at 13:42

It sure is. Try it in your console. – Jeremy Thille Jul 07 '20 at 13:42

So you want to not allow back using replace? – epascarello Jul 07 '20 at 13:43

If the downvote was for the somewhat semantic difference in how to redirect in JavaScript, there [is information about that too](https://stackoverflow.com/q/503093/328193). – David Jul 07 '20 at 13:44
It is not a redirect. It's a navigation. If you press the back button you go to the page that used `location.href`. A redirect replaces the entry in the history stack. – D. Pardal Jul 07 '20 at 13:44
@D.Pardal potato/potato - most people would call `location.href=` a "redirect". Very few people would call it a "navigation". "A redirect replaces the history stack" - can you back that up with evidence? Most people asking questions on here would call this a "replace", not a "redirect" (at least in javascript questions). IMO OP is clearly asking about moving to a new url (navigate in your parlance) not "replacing" the URL. – freedomn-m Jul 07 '20 at 16:21
