Redirect...can someone see something wrong?

[cnl83]

Ok, the page protect function is my class file, but im not sure I have the redirect code right.

[code]

require ('/home/apex/scormsource-www/'."/classes/access_user/access_user_class.php");
session_start();
$sid = $_SESSION['name'];

$page_protect = new Access_user;
$page_protect->access_page(); // only set this this method to protect your page

if (isset($_GET['action']) && $_GET['action'] == "log_out") {
$page_protect->log_out(); // the method to log off
}
//THIS IS WHERE IM HAVING PROBLEMS. IT DOES NOT SEEM TO WORK.
if ($page_protect->access_level >= RESTRICTED_ACCESSPROGRAM_LEVEL)
{
header("location: authenticatedaccessthree.php");
}
//END
[/code]

@header("Location: authenticatedaccessthree.php");

That what you mean?

It looks fine to me. Personally i always have a capital L in Location, but i'm not sure if that makes a difference.

Nah that did not work. Its got to be with my page protect. The page protect works, but not in an if statement obviously.

[code]
<?php
$header = ("location: authenticatedaccessthree.php");
@header( $header );  // Redirect browser

[/code]
try that

That will deffintely redirect, but I need it to rediret if ($page_protect->access_level >= RESTRICTED_ACCESSPROGRAM_LEVEL)

[fiat]

it should still work in a if statement.

i'd parse the value of RESTRICTED_ACCESSPROGRAM_LEVEL into a $array and try again.

[cnl83]

Dont know why...but this worked. Dont know why mine did not work.

if ($page_protect->access_level >= RESTRICTED_ACCESSPROGRAM_LEVEL)
{
//echo $page_protect->access_level;
echo "<script language=\"javascript\" type=\"text/javascript\">";
echo "window.location=\"authenticatedaccessthree.php\";";
echo "</script>";
}

header will only work if it is the first thing you output to the browser.

you can also redirect with
<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="15; url=http://your_url_dot_com" />
15 is the time in seconds before you redirect in case you want to display a message like
"warning you are accessing a page without authorisation the CIA has been warned. This page will self destruct in 15 seconds" (or something similar)
