is this what you mean?

$('button selector').click(function(){
   window.location.href='the_link_to_go_to.html';
})

$('#someButton').click(function() {
    window.location.href = '/some/new/page';
    return false;
});

Without script:

<form action="where-you-want-to-go"><input type="submit"></form>

Better yet, since you are just going somewhere, present the user with the standard interface for "just going somewhere":

<a href="where-you-want-to-go">ta da</a>

Although, the context sounds like "Simulate a normal search where the user submits a form", in which case the first option is the way to go.

In your html, you can add data attribute to your button:

<button type="submit" class="mybtn" data-target="/search.html">Search</button>

Then you can use jQuery to change the url:

$('.mybtn').on('click', function(event) {
    event.preventDefault(); 
    var url = $(this).data('target');
    location.replace(url);
});

Hope this helps

With simple Javascript:

<input type="button" onclick="window.location = 'path-here';">

No need for javascript, just wrap it in a link

<a href="http://www.google.com"><button type="button">button</button></a>

You can use:

  location.href = "newpage.html"

in the button's onclick event.

This should work ..

$('#buttonID').click(function(){ window.location = 'new url'});

You can use window.location

window.location="/newpage.php";

Or you can just make the form that the search button is in have a action of the page you want.

this is the FASTEST (most readable, least complicated) way to do it, Owens works but it's not legal HTML, technically this answer is not jQuery (but since jQuery is a pre-prepared pseudocode - reinterpreted on the client platform as native JavaScript - there really is no such thing as jQuery anyway)

 <button onclick="window.location.href='http://www.google.com';">Google</button>

You can use this simple JavaScript code to make search button to link to a sample search results page. Here I have redirected to '/search' of my home page, If you want to search from Google search engine, You can use "https://www.google.com/search" in form action.

<form action="/search"> Enter your search text: 
<input type="text" id="searchtext" name="q"> &nbsp;
<input onclick="myFunction()" type="submit" value="Search It" />
</form> 
<script> function myFunction() 
{ 
var search = document.getElementById("searchtext").value; 
window.location = '/search?q='+search; 
} 
</script>

From YT 2012 code.

<button href="/signin" onclick=";window.location.href=this.getAttribute('href');return false;">Sign In</button>

Use a link and style it like a button:

<a href="#page2" class="ui-btn ui-shadow ui-corner-all">Click this button</a>

And in Rails 3 with CoffeeScript using unobtrusive JavaScript (UJS):

Add to assets/javascripts/my_controller.js.coffee:

$ ->
  $('#field_name').click ->
    window.location.href = 'new_url'

which reads: when the document.ready event has fired, add an onclick event to a DOM object whose ID is field_name which executes the javascript window.location.href='new_url';

There are a lot of questions here about client side redirect, and I can't spout off on most of them…this one is an exception.

Redirection is not supposed to come from the client…it is supposed to come from the server. If you have no control over the server, you can certainly use Javascript to choose another URL to go to, but…that is not redirection. Redirection is done with 300 status codes at the server, or by plying the META tag in HTML.
