Above is my code plz help me to overcome my problem since i have hosted in the site, it works well in my local server but not working in the website

Answer 1

I guess thee is problem with your code at window.location = "contact.html" part. If you want to redirect to this page, try giving absolute path. You may also try window.location.href or window.open. Note that window.open will open it in new window.
