what's wrong with this function?

[nobodyk]

When ever I put it on my php page I get a blank page. I haven't been able to call the function yet.

function waitmsg($dmsg,$whereto) {
echo "<script language='javascript'>setTimeout("location.href='http://".$site_url."/".$whereto."'",5);</script>";
echo "<br><br><br><div align='center'>".$dmsg."</div><br>";
echo "<div align='center'>Please wait while you're automatically redirect, If you are not forwarded within 5 seconds, please click <a href='http://".$site_url."/".$dmsg.">here</a>.</div><br><br><br>";
}

 

Any ideas?

first echo is wrong  if you start with a " and then put " in the string it thinks the string is finished (if that makes sense)

Get you a good editor with a syntax highlighter, and you would instantly recognize this problem.

function waitmsg($dmsg,$whereto) {
echo "<script language='javascript'>setTimeout(\"location.href='http://".$site_url."/".$whereto."',5);</script>";
echo "<br><br><br><div align='center'>".$dmsg."</div><br>";
echo "<div align='center'>Please wait while you're automatically redirect, If you are not forwarded within 5 seconds, please click <a href='http://".$site_url."/".$dmsg.">here</a>.</div><br><br><br>";
}

Can you recommend one?

 

Also, I fix the problem. It was a syntax problem
