The 2026 Drupal Business Survey is open. Your response will help shape the future of the Drupal business ecosystem.When I got an AJAX Webform with submission settings "redirect" on a certail page, Internet Explorer won't redirect. All other browsers work just fine.
What happens?
Well, on a successful submit, the AJAX request loads the file ajax_responder.js from CTools and then invokes some Drupal "commands". The last command is "redirect" which gets added to the DOM by said ajax_responder.js.
However, in Internet Explorer, the Block to add these commands to the prototype is NOT executed, because it's wrapped in a jQuery function object:
// Hide these in a ready to ensure that Drupal.ajax is set up first.
$(function() {
Drupal.ajax.prototype.commands.attr = function(ajax, data, status) {
$(data.selector).attr(data.name, data.value);
};
.....
What was wrong (or however what fixed the problem) was not to execute it as a jQuery function, but add it as a Drupal behaviour and let Drupal do the work:
Drupal.behaviors.ctools_add_ajax_responder_commands = {
attach:function() {
Drupal.ajax.prototype.commands.attr = function(ajax, data, status) {
$(data.selector).attr(data.name, data.value);
};
.....
You may find my patch in comment #2. Please take a look at it and comment wether this is the proper solution for that case or not.

mustanggb commentedThis fixed ajax reload not working after enabling jQuery3.
I won't RTBC as I've not looked into it enough to know if this is the best fix, i.e. what the consequences/downsides are.
Also your patch is malformed.
But good job, it's working for me for now.

skylord commentedSuffered from the same issue in Chrome with jQuery 1.10 from jquery_update. Misteriously all worked fine for admin user and not for usual one - have no time to investigate but that patch helped. Thanks!

joelpittetLooks like this needs a reroll. At first glance this looks like it was going in the right direction but need to look closer after it's rerolled.

torotil commentedI have the same problem with Chromium 73 and jQuery 1.7.2: The ajax commands are not defined after the ajax-responder.js is loaded. The patch solves the issue for me as well.
This is definitely not limited to jQuery 3 or Internet Explorer. I made the issue title less specific.
