header(); not working properly...

[jayvenom]

hey i have created a  page which is used to insert records into mySql..

records get inserted perfectedly....

but after insertion its not loading into another page...that is the inserted record must be reviewd..

 

 

NOTE:this works perfectly in WAMP5 server... but not in my host...

also header() works for other files except this....

Does script do any output before calling header()?

 

WampServer has output_buffering enabled by default, which hides such errors, but they come out when the code is run on server with ob disabled.

Most likely you are outputting some information and thus headers is failing. You can comb through your code to find the problem or you can use a <meta> redirect.

how to do the <meta> redirect?

[WolfRage]

<?php
echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content=".01; url=http://127.0.0.1:/" />';
?>

Using a <meta> redirect when you are outputting something on a page will waste your hosting account bandwidth.

 

You need to find the reason why your code stopped working and fix it, especially since there is only a problem on one page.

actually i used Dreamweaver for that...

am new to this php...

 $insertGoTo = "viewinad.php";
  if (isset($_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'])) {
    $insertGoTo .= (strpos($insertGoTo, '?')) ? "&" : "?";
    $insertGoTo .= $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
  }
  header(sprintf("Location: %s", $insertGoTo));

thankx bro the meta tag works...

but takes time.. not like the header....

 

but as am intrested in learning this php... i would like to know why its not working!!!!

As stated before, probably because you have browser output before your header.

 

Turn on error display and reporting and see if you get a header error.
