daughn888 Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 I need to know a command that will display one of my site's web pages if a certain form value equals a certain value.For instance, in a form validating program/quiz I am writing, I have the a "wrong answer" prompt displayed on screen if the user gets the wrong answer...-----------------------------------------$question1 = $_POST['q1'];if ($question1 != "results") {echo "sorry, wrong answer. Please hit your browser's back button and try again. "; }------------------------------------------but if the user types in the correct answer, I would like the php script to automatically display in the same window another of my html pages. What command would I use to automatically pull up another html page?Any help would be appreciated.Thanks Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/14691-fetching-a-website/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
pixy Posted July 15, 2006 Share Posted July 15, 2006 Couldn't you just use include("page.php"); or redirect them to page.php with header("location: page.php"); (but remember rules for sending headers so you don't get errors).Or, use this function for redirecting:<?phpDEFINE("X_REDIRECT_HEADER", 1);DEFINE("X_REDIRECT_JS", 2);function redirect($path, $timeout=2, $type=X_REDIRECT_HEADER) { // split session attack code fix if (strpos(urldecode($path), "\n") !== false || strpos(urldecode($path), "\r") !== false) { error('Tried to redirect to potentially insecure url.'); } // force session to be written before redirecting session_write_close(); $type = (headers_sent() || $type == X_REDIRECT_JS ) ? X_REDIRECT_JS : X_REDIRECT_HEADER; if ($type == X_REDIRECT_JS) { ?> <script language="javascript" type="text/javascript"> function redirect() { window.location.replace("<?php echo $path?>"); } setTimeout("redirect();", <?php echo ($timeout*1000)?>); </script> <?php } else { if ( $timeout == 0) { header("Location: $path"); } else { header("Refresh: $timeout; URL=./$path"); } } return true;}?>And then, when you want to redirect do something like:redirect("page.php", 0);0 is the time, so adjust it higher if you want it to linger one the results page before redirecting.
