[SOLVED] problem with redirecting

[thankqwerty]

Hello all, I want to redirect to two possible pages depending on some condition so i have :

<?php

if ($a>$b) echo  "<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0; A.php">";

else echo  "<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0; B.php">";

?>

 

but the out is simply

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="1; A.php"> 

where the page is not redirected.

 

Is there any other to handle this?

<?php

if ($a>$b)
{
echo "<script>document.location.href='A.php'</script>";
}
else{
echo "<script>document.location.href='B.php'</script>";
}

?>

<?php

if ($a>$b)
{
echo "<script>document.location.href='A.php'</script>";
}
else{
echo "<script>document.location.href='B.php'</script>";
}

?>

 

 

what if the browser doesn't let javascript be passed?

I would suggest this script

if ($a>$b){
header("Location: A.php");
} else {
header("Location: B.php");
}

What  if he's already sent headers?

 

The number of people who know how to turn off JavaScript, let alone the number of people who actually do turn it off, is tiny

<?php
if ($a>$b) echo  "<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0; A.php">";

else echo  "<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0; B.php">";

?>

 

but the out is simply

<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="1; A.php"> 

 

--> should be:

echo  '<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0;A.php" />';
else echo  '<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0;B.php" />';

You don't change the < to <... etc when you want the code to be parsed (not displayed, but run)

why not use header(); ?

 

<?php

if ($a>$b) header("Location: A.php");

else header("Location: B.php");

?>

 

EDIT: I didn't see you already posted this suggestion dezkit , my bad...

If the code is structured properly then the headers already being sent should not be a problem. A website should be able to run with JavaScript enabled or disabled, regardless.

echo  '<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0;A.php" />';
else echo  '<META HTTP-EQUIV="refresh" CONTENT="0;B.php" />';

 

This script should be used thankqwerty, now hit topic solved.
