Header error.. redirect

Recommended Posts

Hello,

I have a function to delete a record from a databse. Once it's done I need to redorect to the main index page of my admin system, because the deleted record is no longer there to look at.

I'm using this:

header("Location: /index.php");

The delete works but I get his error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/jwwceo/www.vectortees.com/admin/inc/header.php:24) in /home/jwwceo/www.vectortees.com/admin/orderpage.php on line 47

I've read about not having any html output before the header command, but I'm not exactly sure what this means. I've used this command a ton of time sbefore and it always works.

any tips?  Thanks in advance.

I don' think there is any text generated before this.... here is my code...for the top part of that page...

[code]<?php


include 'inc/header.php';

if (isset($_POST['deletetext'])) {

$deletetext =($_POST['deletetext']);

if ($deletetext == 'yes'){


$updatestatus = "DELETE FROM orders WHERE ordernum ='$ordernum'";
mysql_query($updatestatus) or die("Error: ". mysql_error(). " with query ". $updatestatus);

header("Location: /index.php");}[/code]
