[SOLVED] syntax error

[ballhogjoni]

I am coming up with this error for this line of code: Parse error: syntax error, unexpected '.', expecting ')' in /home/realfina/public_html/tests/leads.php on line 167

 

function redirect($filename="http://\"".$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."?page=$next\"", $delay="0", $die="0"){

In function definitions I do not think you can use concatonation...or $strings for that matter.

 

Instead what I would do a constant variable defintion and use that.

 

IE:

 

<?php
$next = 3;
define('DEFAULT_REDIRECT', 'HTTP://' . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] . '?page=' . $next);

function redirect($filename=DEFAULT_REDIRECT, $delay="0", $die="0") {

}
?>
