To specify a redirection to an action, you indicate 'redirect' as the type of response:

$resp = $this->getResponse('redirect');

You have then an instance of jResponseRedirect in $resp.

You have three properties on this object:

• action to indicate the action to redirect (an action selector)
• params to indicate parameters for this actions (optional)
• anchor to indicate an anchor in the url #anchor (optional)

Example:

$resp->action = "mymodule~mycontroller:mycontroller";
$resp->params = array('foo' => 'bar');
$resp->anchor = 'yo';

And then

return $resp;

This type of response ("redirectUrl") is used to redirect to an external url (or an url which is not pointing to your application).

$resp = $this->getResponse('redirectUrl');

The single property of this response is url, where you indicate the url to redirect.

$resp->url = "http://jelix.org";
return $resp;

By default, redirections are temporary redirection (http status code: 303). If you want to indicate a permanent redirection, you have to set the property $temporary to false.

$resp->temporary = false;
