When my Visualforce page loads, I have a record loaded with a field that is a checkbox. If the checkbox is checked (is true), I want to redirect to another Visualforce page. I currently have an init() function in my constructor of my controller for the Visualforce page. When I've added like logic it doesn't redirect. Look for the code comment "this line here". I'm not sure why it's not redirecting.
public class TakeSurveyController
{
private String headerId = ApexPages.currentpage().getParameters().get('header');
private String surveySentId = ApexPages.currentpage().getParameters().get('id');
private String isPreview = ApexPages.currentpage().getParameters().get('ispre');
private Map<Id, SEO__CSEO_Survey_Question__c> questionmap = new Map<Id, SEO__CSEO_Survey_Question__c>();
public SEO__CSEO_Survey__c NewSurvey { get; set; }
public Id surveyId { get; set; }
public Id cntid { get; set; }
public Id souceid { get; set;}
public List<SEO__CSEO_Survey_Question__c> SurveyQuestions { get; set; }
public List<SEO__CSEO_Referral_Site__c> SurveySites { get; set; }
public SEO__CSEO_Survey_Response_Header__c SurveyHeader { get; set; }
public SEO__CSEO_Survey_Response_Header__c InsertSurveyHeader { get; set; }
public String surveyScoreStr { get; set; }
public TakeSurveyController()
{
init();
}
// redirects to desired page. works when user clicks a button
// on the vf page
public PageReference giveFeedback()
{
PageReference retPage = new PageReference('/apex/CompleteSurvey');
if(surveySentId != null && surveySentId != '')
{
retPage.getParameters().put('id', surveySentId);
}
/*
if(isPreview != null && isPreview != '')
{
retPage.getParameters().put('ispre', isPreview);
}
if(cntid != null && cntid != '')
{
retPage.getParameters().put('cntid', cntid);
}
if(souceid != null && souceid != '')
{
retPage.getParameters().put('souceid', souceid);
}
*/
retPage.setRedirect(true);
return retPage;
}
private void init()
{
SEO__Survey_Sent__c sent = [SELECT SEO__Survey__c, SEO__Contact__c

WHERE Id = :surveySentId

surveyId = sent.SEO__Survey__c;

}
SurveySites = [select Id, name, SEO__Site_Name__c, Site_URL__c from SEO__CSEO_Referral_Site__c where SEO__CSEO_Survey__c = :sent.SEO__Survey__c];

You have a couple problems:
actionattribute to yourpagetag.First you have to change your controller to return the proper type:
Then you have to change your markup to specify an
actionattribute on your<apex:page>tag:
