redirection function

[danmon]

Hello all,

 

I've been looking for hours in the php doc to find a function that redirects me to another .php file with parameters.

Here is exactly what I want: once the users register on my page I want to verify if the info is ok then go to the congratulation.php page and say thanks "username" for registering on our page. So I'll need to send the username and some other info too to the .php page.

I don't want to do it via the html <form> and press a button, I am looking for a simple php function.

 

Thanks

 

Danmon

David thanks for your mail but the function header(); isn't good cause u can't send parameters

 

ps: write on the forum

http_redirect( [string url [, array params [, bool session = FALSE [, int status]]]] )

You can save the username and other information in session or cookie 

or you can use:

header("Location:congratulation.php?username=". $username ."");

 

or by using meta tag:

<META HTTP-EQUIV="Refresh" CONTENT="0;URL=congratulation.php?username=<?= $username?>">

 

i prefer the first way.
