turtleman8605 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Is there a way to redirect a page after the header has already been sent? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbug Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Look up "meta tag refresh." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
turtleman8605 Posted June 4, 2007 Author Share Posted June 4, 2007 meta tags are in the header. I need something that will take a user to another page after processing information on a form. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
per1os Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 Can you post code? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wildbug Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 From a Googled result: <html> <head> <title>Redirect to the right page</title> <META http-equiv="refresh" content="5;URL=http://www.indiana.edu/~smithclas/l200/"> </head> (source) Unless you are considering <head></head> the header -- and usually by "header" the HTTP header is meant -- then that's not in the header.

turtleman8605 Posted June 5, 2007 Author Share Posted June 5, 2007 here's the code: <?php if (array_key_exists('_submit_check', $_POST)) { // The submitted form is valid, so process it process_form(); header( 'location:http://www.morseavenuedesign.com/CinemaSightLines.com/sample_forum.php' ); show_form(); } else { //The form wasn't submitted, so display show_form(); } this doesn't work, I get an error that says "Warning... head has already been sent..."

taith Posted June 5, 2007 Share Posted June 5, 2007 or just use my function instead of header()... saves ALOT of troubles! :-) <?php function redirect($filename="?", $delay="0", $die="0"){ if((!headers_sent())&&($delay=="0")) header('Location: '.$filename); elseif($delay=="0"){ echo '<script type="text/javascript">'; echo 'window.location.href="'.$filename.'";'; echo '</script>'; echo '<noscript>'; echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url='.$filename.'" />'; echo '<noscript>'; }else echo '<meta http-equiv="refresh" content="'.$delay.';url='.$filename.'" />'; if($die=="0"){ db_disconnect(); exit; } } ?> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Does process_form() display any data, if so that is why. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
