Redirecting to a "thank you" page

Hello!  I've created an EOTI form, so that the public is able to submit questions or comments to our office. After someone hits submit, I'd like them to be redirected to a "thank you page". I've been...

Hi Kendyl,

looks your missing some info in your formula there.   

All you have there is the variable called 'rdrURL'.

Here's the code from a button I have that is doing something similar when someone hits the 'decline' button on a form.  This code changes a multiple choice field to 'Decline' then redirects the user to a simple page that confirms they have declined.   You should be able to change this code to fit your need.

This is a formula-rich text field.

var text ButtonWords = "Decline";

var text URLONE = URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&rid=" & [Record ID#]
& "&apptoken=YOUR_APP_TOKEN"
& "&_fid_17="&"Decline";  

var text URLTWO = URLRoot() & "db/" & AppID() & "?a=showpage&pageid=3";

var text URL =
$URLONE
& "&rdr=" & URLEncode($URLTWO);


// Begin button style
var text bgcolor = "#cc4c2f";
var text txtcolor = "white";
var text style = "style=\"text-decoration: none; width: 100px; text-align: center; background:" & $bgcolor & "; border-radius: 5px; padding: 8px 10px; color: " & $txtcolor & "; display: inline-block; font: normal 700 24px/1 \"Calibri\", sans-serif; text-shadow: none;";
// End button style

"<a " & $style & " href=" & $URL & ">" & $ButtonWords & "</a>"

    Hi Jeff, 
    Thank you so much for your response! Would I put the URL I'd like to be redirected to after "var text URL = " or where would that go?

      You can replace the URL2 variable with the URL you are redirecting to. 


      var text URLTWO = "www.myredirecturl.com";

        Hi Jeff, 
        I tried adding in my URL and although the "submit" button is working it's still not redirecting to the page I'd like. Here is my code, can you see if I've put something in wrong?

        var text ButtonWords = "Submit";

        var text URLONE = URLRoot() & "db/" & Dbid() & "?act=API_EditRecord&rid=" & [Record ID#]
        & "&apptoken=YOUR_APP_TOKEN"
        & "&_fid_17="&"Submit";

        var text URLTWO = "https://ruralhealth.health.utah.gov/hwac-thankyou/" & "db/" & AppID() & "?a=showpage&pageid=3";

        var text URL =
        $URLONE
        & "&rdr=" & URLEncode($URLTWO);


        // Begin button style
        var text bgcolor = "#1AA1B7";
        var text txtcolor = "white";
        var text style = "style=\"text-decoration: none; width: 100px; text-align: center; background:" & $bgcolor & "; border-radius: 5px; padding: 8px 10px; color: " & $txtcolor & "; display: inline-block; font: normal 700 24px/1 \"Calibri\", sans-serif; text-shadow: none;";
        // End button style

        "<a " & $style & " href=" & $URL & ">" & $ButtonWords & "</a>"

        Thank you!

        Kendyl
