@LinuxForce

lol its a snipplet its not all the code.. this is the only part you need to see..

 

i dont understand why

[LinuxForce]

Oh i was just skimming through the thread and i don't really see why it shouldn't either then again im still learning myself.

Do you have error reporting on, are you outputing data before the header is called?  if you are outputing anything, they it will not redirect.

 

Put this at the top of the page and see if anything is erroring out

 

error_reporting(E_ALL);
