Synopsis
location
window.location
Properties
The Location object defines the same URL-related properties that
the Link object does, with the exception of the
target. See the
Link object for a description of the
hash, host, hostname, href,
pathname, port, protocol, and search properties. Setting any of
these properties causes the browser to load and display the docu-
ment from the new URL. As a shortcut, you can also load a new
document by assigning a URL string to the
location property of
the Window.
Methods
reload(force)
Reloads the current document from the cache or the server.
The
force argument is optional. If true, it forces a complete
reload, even if the document has not been modified. Returns
nothing. JS 1.1.
replace(url)
Replaces the current document with a new one, without
generating a new entry in the browsing history. Returns
nothing. JS 1.1.

QuotationMarkI wanted to learn C and C++, but it didn't click for me until I picked up an O'Reilly book. When I went on the O’Reilly platform, I was astonished to find all the books there, plus live events and sandboxes so you could play around with the technology.
