If you make a header redirect via PHP your whole ajax request redirects. If
you request your mail.php and make something like this in it:
header("Location: news.php");
exit;
You will get the contents of news.php back in your request. If you like to
redirect the user to a whole other page you have to do it with javascript.
So return the URL you want to redirect to and set it to window.location as
you did in the one example. Problem is if you don't wanna redirect the user
anywhere because your server validation failed or something like this
(which i hope so, because otherwise you don't need an ajax request and
could send the form directly to the php file which does the redirecting and
you would have to do 1 request less). Then you might want to display an
error message. In this case you should return an JSON Object with a status
or action. Something like this:
Redirect:
{
'action': 'redirect',
'url': 'news.php'
}
Display error:
{
'action': 'displayError',
'message': 'E-Mail address isn't valid'
}
Then you have a lot of flexibility for your purpose.
Best,
Steffen
