Hey,

 

I need the code that will check if a file called file.php is in there if its not it will redirect to file2.php without loading the rest of the page?

 

Thanks.

<?php
$filename = 'file.php'; //file to check if it excists

if (file_exists($filename)) {  //check if it excists
    echo "The file $filename exists";  // return echo that its there... replace this with the code for the page etc...
} else { //if it doesnt excist
    header("Location: file2.php");//redirect to another page
    die();  //dont load anything else from this page
}
?> 

 

i beleieve this would work

<?php
$fname = 'file.php';
if(!file_exists($fname)) {
	header("Location: file2.php");
	exit;
}
?>

 

Edit: Sorry, joecooper's should work just as well but I didn't see his updated code before I posted.

Would it be safe to remove the echo to say its there.

It's "safe" in that it won't break your code, however it is the main way (right now) for you to know if the file exists or not.
