Hi All, I would like to know if there is a way to change the URL displayed on browser without using Redirect option. The URL visible on client browser must be based on some condition that is evaluated in my mod_perl handler. For example - 1. User types the URL - www.example.com <http://www.example.com/>, this will display the login page. 2. Once the user enters the credentials and hits submit, the request is posted to www.example.com/login <http://www.example.com/login> action. 3. If the credentials entered by the user is valid then i would like to show the home page..uri 4. I am able to show the homw page, but the URL does not change to www.example.com/home <http://www.example.com/home>, instead it remains the same (i.e. www.example.com/login <http://www.example.com/login>). I am using Template toolkit to render my pages. I tried $req->url('/home'), but that does not change the browser URI. Any help will be appreciated.
Telling the browser to fudge the URL is a client side thing. There is support for this in HTML5, with varying support in different browsers.
