requinix Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 The only thing possibly resembling a question that you've said is about how to redirect to the top of the page. To do that... redirect to the page. Don't do anything special. It's just a normal redirect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

requinix Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 Well, as far as I can tell you expect the $a=true you have at the bottom of the script to affect the if($a) you have at the top of the script. Causality doesn't work that way: define the variable first, use the variable second. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrettHartel Posted January 14, 2013 Share Posted January 14, 2013 When using a form action to send the form input to another page you do not need a header that redirects. Clicking the form button will automatically redirect you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
