[SOLVED] Redirection Code? ? What the?

Snooble · January 8, 2007

Hello everyone.

I have redirection code that looks like this:

[code]fclose($fp);
header("Location: registertwo.php");
}
?>[/code]

should this work? its in an else statement. I just included the fclose to show you that there's an fwrite before it. If that changes anything?

Please please please. I've tried this many times now and i honestly cant get it to work. after i submit the form it gives me a blank page and if i right click to find the properties it still tells me its on register.php and hasn't redirected!...

Driving me MAD!!!

Thank you in advance

Are you outputting anything to the browser prior to the call to header() ? You cant.

Is there a different method i could use? Which would allow me to change the page. As when i try to just echo out the new page i can't keep the set variables. If that makes sense?

Thank you for your fast reply.

You could use Javascript but logically you should never need to output anything to the browser if all your going to end up doing is redirecting anyway, it makes no sense.

Snooble · January 8, 2007

so a header.location("blah.com") would work in place? would i need script tags. And also the page is a form. And there are 2 pages to the form. Both noting different information into a mysql database. ATM its just fwrite'd.

Is there any other way i can use a 2 page registration without a redirection? As i will do it your way if you suggest one.

Thanks

A two page form should work as follows. p1 submits to p2 and stores submitted data into hidden form fields, p2 then submits all the data to the final p3.

Snooble · January 8, 2007

ok. So how would i (The user) be transfered to the second page?

registration.php
--------------
Writes information to file and shows next page = registrationtwo.php

registrationtwo.php
---------------
Writes information to file and shows index, greeting user with firstname and surname variable that was entered in registration.php

Thats my goal.

Surely theres a way?

Thanks again for the quick responce. Really Appreciate it!

Thats really only a one page setup. Well, one form anyway.
registration.php
[code]
<form action='registrationtwo.php' method='post'>
<input type='text' name='uname'>
<input type='submit' name='submit'>
</form>
[/code]

registrationtwo.php
[code]
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
echo "hello ".$_POST['uname'];
}
?>
[/code]

Snooble · January 8, 2007

ok, so by placing the form action = "" onto the start of the form it will take the user to registration 2, AS WELL AS fwrite the information if i implement my code? I need the information from registration.php to be written upon click of "Continue to page 2" and then the next form also fwrites on click of "Complete form" which continues and returns to the index with the welcome message.

Sorry but without the answers i am left pondering. I'm beginning to learn php using Lyndas guide.

Do you think this is the way to go for me? Or is there better ways to learn? I just sit back through 9 1/2 hours of quicktime video.

Please try to offer a solution based on the code above otherwise i have trouble positioning/including the code.

I really do appreciate your time. I see you help so many people on here, responding SO quickly. I thank you, as this'll be the second time i've suceeded with your help!

The actuall writting of the data (fwrite) doesnt happen with the click, it actually needs to happen on the next page. To give another example....

registration.php
[code]
<form action='registrationtwo.php' method='post'>
<input type='text' name='uname'>
<input type='submit' name='submit'>
</form>
[/code]

registrationtwo.php
[code]
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
echo "
<form action='final.php' method='post'>
<input type='hidden' value='{$_POST['uname']}'>
<input type='password' name='upass'>
<input type='submit' name='submit'>
</form>";
}
?>
[/code]

final.php
[code]
<?php
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
// process all data
}
?>
[/code]

the code looks brilliant to me! Fantastic. Thank you ever so much. I will try it soon and will unsolve the topic if i have trouble. But this looks like i can understand it. It's just going to be on a much larger scale, as each page has 10-12 fields on it!

Thank you once again thorpe. You are very good to the people here.
