form redirect page

[cosmic2006]

Hi

I need a form to redirect to a url when you click on 'submit' - the redirect url all depends on which radio button you select.
The submitting of the form works perfectly, but the redirect part of it doesn't work, I keep getting 404 pages after the form has submitted. Is there something wrong with the code below?

It's taking me hours to try figure this out as although I have some knowledge of PHP I've never needed or used a php script like this before. Thanks in advance for your help [img src=\"style_emoticons/[#EMO_DIR#]/wink.gif\" style=\"vertical-align:middle\" emoid=\":wink:\" border=\"0\" alt=\"wink.gif\" /]

Here's the code....


<?php
if (isset($_POST['yesno']))
{
$yesno=$_POST['yesno'];
if($yesno == "yes")
{
header("Location:http://www.google.com/");
exit;
}
if($yesno == "no")
{
header("Location: [a href=\"http://www.yahoo.com/");\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.yahoo.com/");[/a]
exit;
}
if($yesno == "other")
{
header("Location: [a href=\"http://www.lycos.com/");\" target=\"_blank\"]http://www.lycos.com/");[/a]
exit;
}
}
?>

<form action="/cgi-bin/bizmail.cgi" method="POST">

<input name="yesno" type="radio" value="yes"> Google<br>
<input name="yesno" type="radio" value="no"> Yahoo<br>
<input name="yesno" type="radio" value="other"> Lycos<br><br>

<center><br><br>
<p><input type="submit" value="Submit Info"> </p>
</form>

Unless your PHP script is called bizmail.cgi, the action should be set to the name of your PHP script... I'm guessing that's why you get 404 error

exit;
}
if($yesno == "other")

Thank you for your help.
I still don't completely understand what I should do.
The form script in the Action part was a CGI script, I am now using dodosmail.php. Can anyone tell me exactly what I should do next? in php beginners speak!

If you also want to use a mailing script your have to add it to the existing code ok.


It will be inpossable for you to redirect to a out side url and then also goto your mail script.

What are you trying to do completly?
