passing vaules through header Location?

[spires]

Hi

 

Just a quick question.

 

I'm trying to pass an ID value to another page using Header Location.

$id = $row['aff_id'];
header("Location:aff_tools.php?id=".$id."");

 

However, its not showing in the address bar on the

next page.

It jsu shows:

aff_tools.php?id=

 

I use this link all of the time, but it does not seem to work with the header.

 

Any ideas

 

I have also tryed:

$id = $row['aff_id'];
header("Location:aff_tools.php?id=$id");

AND

$id = $row['aff_id'];
header("Location:aff_tools.php?id='.$id.'");

 

Thanks

try just echoing $row['aff_id'];

 

echo 'ID is: '.$row['aff_id'];

 

 

im putting my money on it that $row['aff_id'] is blank/null.

 

p.s.

I have a 2 week old daughter so i have no money!

 

Regards

Liam

['aff_id'] does have a value in it.

 

Any other ideas?

could you post your full code?

header("Location:aff_tools.php?id=sdf");

 

if you get sdf in your URL then the $id variable has a problem

 

What is $row['aff_id'], more important, where is $row defined
