javascript - Redirect after a user clicked a facebook like button

I have a facebook tab with an iframe application and within that tab there is a facebook like button to have a second capability to like the facebook page. It is an ordinary facebook like button iframe.

Is there a possibility to redirect the user when it clicks the button? I tried it the following code:

<div id="fb-root"></div>
<script type="text/javascript">
    window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
        FB.init({appId: '<my app id>', status: true, cookie: true, xfbml: true});
        FB.Canvas.setSize({ width: 520, height: 1500 });
        FB.Event.subscribe('edge.create',
            function(response) {
                alert('like!');
            }
        );
    };

    //Load the SDK asynchronously
    (function() {
        var e = document.createElement('script'); e.async = true;
            e.src = document.location.protocol +
              '//connect.facebook/en_US/all.js';
            document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e);
    }());
</script>

But this doesn't work. Is there a way or am I doing something wrong?

I just tested the following code and it works as expected

<html xmlns="http://www.w3/1999/xhtml" xmlns:fb="http://www.facebook./2008/fbml">
<head></head>
<body>
<div id="fb-root"></div>

<fb:like href="http://yoururlto.like" send="false" width="450" show_faces="false" font=""></fb:like>

<script type="text/javascript">
    window.fbAsyncInit = function() {
        FB.init({appId: 'YOUR_APP_ID', status: true, cookie: true, xfbml: true});
        FB.Canvas.setSize({ width: 520, height: 1500 });
        FB.Event.subscribe('edge.create',
            function(response) {
                alert('like!');
                // put redirect code here eg
                window.location = "http://www.mysite./redirected.html"; 
            }
        );
    };

    //Load the SDK asynchronously
    (function() {
        var e = document.createElement('script'); e.async = true;
            e.src = document.location.protocol +
              '//connect.facebook/en_US/all.js';
            document.getElementById('fb-root').appendChild(e);
    }());
</script>
</body>
</html>

How does it pare to your own page?
