[SOLVED] Customized BID Login Page - Redirect

I created a simple customized BID login page in the approot folder becauses users didn't like the long bid links:
http://servername/ibi_apps/bid...RIFY&WORP_MPV=aa_gbv

The customized big login screen have a banner and login section and the link is simple now:
http://servername/approot/sales_team.html

Users are able to login through the approot link but when they login the dashboard is embedded in the sales_team html. So you see the banner from the login page and below the logo on the bid. The link is always at: http://servername/approot/sales_team.html even after login in.

Is there was to redirect the user to the bid once they login?

I'm have this in the sales_team.html code:

<FORM ACTION="/ibi_apps/Controller" METHOD="post" NAME="userform" onSubmit="return fnLogin[);">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="IBIWF_language"    VALUE="en">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="WORP_MPV"          VALUE="aa_gbv">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="groupName"         VALUE="Sales Team BID">
<INPUT TYPE="hidden" NAME="WORP_REQUEST_TYPE" VALUE="WORP_GBV_VERIFY">
[CODE]

Would I need to add something above to redirect them to:
http://servername/ibi_apps/bid...RIFY&WORP_MPV=aa_gbv

Stuck.

Your sales_team.html file probably uses frames. Don't use frames and your redirection should work.

you can use javascript to do that; something like this

 <input onclick="javascript:window.open('http://servername/ibi_apps/bid/aa_gbv?WORP_REQUEST_TYPE=WORP_LOGIN&WORP_USER="username"&WORP_PASS="password"', "_blank");language="javascript" />

This will pass you username and password to the ibi_apps.

Except that opens a new window and leaves the login screen in place...

Well, In that case you can use any of this :-

_parent - URL is loaded into the parent frame
_self - URL replaces the current page
_top - URL replaces any framesets that may be loaded
_blank - URL is loaded into a new window.(This is Default function that why I used that)
