Add the following lines to your file and rerun.

 

ini_set ("display_errors", "1");

error_reporting(E_ALL);

 

Example:

<?php
ini_set ("display_errors", "1");
error_reporting(E_ALL);


$redirect_page = "fail.php";

if(in_array($_GET['svalue'], array('Search', 'search')){
$redirect_page = "index.html";
}

header("Location: " . $redirect_page);

echo "not working"
?>

First of all your code is a mess:

 

1. You are using in_array() to look for values 'Search' and 'search' from the user posted form. And you have not defined values such as 'search' or 'Search' in the form fields.

 

2. Not sure if this is correct, form action send.php. Means you have to process the form data in send.php.

 

3. <input> field DOES NOT have parameters like: autocomplete OR delay OR action at all. Only form tag has action parameter.

 

While debugging you might wanna comment out also those redirects, so you are able to see the errors what it outputs when sending the form if there is any.
