Hello
Wondering something, I created a form and have I have it submit when the user clicks the Submit button.

Is it okay if I redirect to Google like I did here.
if(fOk)
{
document.frmCustomer.submit();
//window.location="http://www.google.com"
}
I can't do it in the form action, because I have the mailto link. Simply put, what I did in the if statement, is that okay, there would be no problem with it?
