nafetski Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Nope, once you redirect it stops Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/197180-after-a-redirect-will-the-script-continue-to-work/#findComment-1035016 Share on other sites More sharing options...
teamatomic Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Yes, the script keeps running till it ends or hits a die/exit. You cant however output anything to the page you were on cause with a redirect obviously the buffer is no longer there for output. That is why it is good practice to put an exit after a header redirect, to stop the script from continuing on, unless of course you want something else done after the redirect.
