Hello DrupalTO Friends,

We are looking for more ideas to make DrupalCamp Ottawa an even better event. We are looking for talks on the following topics:

-Business
-Coding and Development
-DevOps
-Drupal Showcase
-Front End
-Performance and Scaling
-PHP and Symphony
-Project Management
-Site Building

If your idea fits into one of the above categories (or if you think it's great anyway), you can submit your session now. Deadline for session submission is July 4th.

I am trying to use webform module for a fairly uncomplicated task, where the user fills in details and then after submission the form redirects to another page.

What I discovered is that all my existing webforms and this one are automatically redirecting to the google website.

https://www.google.ca/?gfe_rd=cr&ei=EXc8V4KpE6iC8Qe-tYGYDw&gws_rd=ssl

Interestingly the URL is sending cookie to the browser, so the original URL is probably google.com.

I created a BoF at DrupalCon https://events.drupal.org/neworleans2016/bofs/drupal-canada

I am hoping to try and bring together more folks from Canada and rally the troops for getting more people involved in the DrupalNorth initiative.

With an inaugural success last year in Toronto the community is continuing to build momentum with this years DrupalNorth in Montreal (http://www.drupalnorth.org/). I want to build it to be even bigger for when we celebrate it's 3rd anniversary in conjunction with Canada's 150th Anniversary, as we host DrupalNorth 2017 in Ottawa.
