Mr.Canuck Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Hello. Everything is working except for the re-direct. When I take out the HTML, the re-direct works fine. I think it has something to do with the fact that the first line of PHP is not on line 1 (I remember reading somewhere that white space can mess up PHP). I am trying to re-direct to: function redirect_to() { header("Location: http://cinematiccorp.com/step2.html"); }, but it keeps re-directing back to the same page. It works properly when I take out the HTML (so it is something to do with that). I probably just have it set up wrong. Any help would be appreciated. Below is the start of the code: <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd"> <html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml"> <head> <meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html; charset=utf-8" /> <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=EmulateIE7" /> <meta name="description" content="Lead generation to bring in more clients" /> <meta name="keywords" content="cinematics, videos, photos, multimedia, video creation, create video, lead generation, generate leads" /> <title>Cinematic Corporation</title> <link href="cinematic.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <!--[if IE 6]> <script type="text/javascript" src="unitpngfix.js"></script> <link href="cinematicIE6.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <![endif]--> <!--[if IE 7]> <link href="cinematicIE.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <![endif]--> </head> <body> <div id="container2"> <div id="header2"> <h1>"Take your photos and videos to the next level"</h1> <div id="body3"> <div id="backbutton2"><FORM><INPUT TYPE="button" VALUE="<--Back" onClick="history.go(-1);return true;"> </FORM></div> <h2 class="important">*Important*</h2> <p class="step1text">The maximum image size for each upload is 2MB.

Psycho Posted October 7, 2009 Share Posted October 7, 2009 Do your logic (i.e. PHP) first - THEN do your output. So, put all your PHP at the top if the page. For any output that the PHP generates, save it to appropriate variables and output those variables within the HTML output. Unorganized way <html> <body> Today is a <?php $dow = date("l"); if($dow=='Saturday' ||$dow=='Sunday') echo "weekend."; } else { echo "workday."; } ?> </body> </html> Better way <?php $dow = date("l"); if($dow=='Saturday' ||$dow=='Sunday') $dayType = "weekend."; } else { $dayType = "workday."; } ?> <html> <body> Today is a <?php echo $dayType; ?> </body> </html> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/176894-solved-php-in-html-issue-with-re-direct/#findComment-932705 Share on other sites More sharing options...
