Hi rjohnson,

Is there any other way to do it easily?
In the form documentation: https://wiki.alfresco.com/wiki/Forms_Developer_Guide, I was that there is a redirect proprerty. Is it not possible to use this way to perform my redirection?

In other case, I think that I have to make some change like in this post: https://forums.alfresco.com/forum/end-user-discussions/alfresco-share/redirect-formprocessor-post-webscript-09092011-1216 or is it more complex?
