Server redirect http request's output to new browser window.

[gsb]

Is it possible that from my server php script, when it detects a db error, to send the error results as a new html page to the browser... instead of to the origin, say '_self' ??

Any way via headers or the like?

not entirely sure what you mean there, but if you do this:

[code]
header("Location: blah.php"); exit;
[/code]

it will send a redirect to blah.php (and stop any script after it).

Thanks for your quick response Crayon Violent .
Sorry I was not  more clear.

But here is the issue:
My page makes a request to, say, load data from the database into a 'frame' and the PHP script called to send the data finds an error.
So instant of sending the error data to the 'frame' it returns the error data formatted in HTML back BUT to a new '_blank' browser window.

Now I have never heard of such being possible, but wanted to ask some experts.

Hopefully that is better detail to help you and others understand my question.

...and Thank you again, Merry Christmas too!  ;)

Hummm...

I'm thinking that this is simply not possible.
Anyone else have an idea?
