window.location issue on hubspot

Question

window.location will redirect to external links like google, but won't redirect to a url with the same domain from where it originates (it'll link to sub-domains, though). This came from a hubspot form, customized to redirect the user to a specific thank-you page based on their inquiry type. This is all in wordpress. There is no issue defining the choice variable. I'm new to JavaScript, thanks for any help.

onFormSubmit: function($form) {
  var choice = $('select[name="form_field_dropdown_select"]').val();
  
  if (choice == 'Support') {
    window.location = 'https://www.mycompany.com/support-thank-you/';
  } else {
    window.location = 'https://www.washingtonpost.com/';
  }
}

I'm running this code through my console because I know the choice variable is set up correctly. The error I'm getting is an Uncaught SyntaxError: Unexpected token ( on the line onFormSubmit: function($form)

onFormSubmit: function($form) {
  var choice = "Support";
  if (choice == 'Support') {
    window.location = 'https://newcloudnetworks.com/support-thank-you';
  } else {
    window.location = 'https://www.washingtonpost.com/';
  }
}

Additionally, I can see the redirect initially going to the support page but then immediately redirecting to the default/home page.

[21/Mar/2019:11:13:44 -0600] "GET /support-thank-you HTTP/1.1" 200 6015

[21/Mar/2019:11:13:46 -0600] "GET / HTTP/1.1" 200 9683

The issue has been resolved. It was an issue I had to raise hell with to Hubspot and they were able to resolve. It had nothing to do with an error in the JS code. Thanks.

Are you getting any error messages? What exactly is happening? — , Mar 19 '19 at 22:41
if understand right you'r getting a `Cross-Origin Resource Sharing` error when using `window.location`, am i right?? please clarify your question @Matthew Fall. — luiscla27, Mar 19 '19 at 22:49
@ChrisG I'm not getting any specific error messages, on the form submit its ultimately defaulting to a different thank-you page I've set this form to go to in hubspot. Removing the default thank you page tied to this form in hubspot has not made a difference, though. — Matthew Fall, Mar 21 '19 at 16:17

So, you need to provide more info, but I'll assume your:

hostname(domain): www.mycompany.com

So you can add another check for the domain the form was used.

const myDomain = 'www.mycompany.com';
onFormSubmit: function($form) {
    var choice = $('select[name="form_field_dropdown_select"]').val();

    if (choice == 'Support') {
        let domain = window.location.hostname;
        if (myDomain == domain) {
            // change path if the form is used in your domain
            window.location.pathname = 'support-thank-you';
        } else {
            // redirect to you domain
            window.location = 'https://www.mycompany.com/support-thank-you/';
        }
    } else {
        window.location = 'https://www.washingtonpost.com/';
    }
}
