redirect example in a if else statement

Anon

Can someone please provide code example for redirecting a user to an index.shtml webpage for inclusion in an if/else statement?

If {
perform some actions
redirect back to index.shtml
}
else {

redirect back to index.shtml
}

Thank you

Anon

i think this is what u want:

if{
perform actions
include "index.shtml"
}else{
include "index.shtml"
}

the include statements will redirect the user...hope this helps...

There is no if/else needed here; not for the redirect, anyway.
That is, if the last action of the 'if' and the 'else' are exactly
the same, that action doesn't belong there at all--it should
be factored out and placed after the construct:

  if (something_is_true)
     {
     perform some actions
    redirect back to index.shtml
    }
  else
    {
    redirect back to index.shtml
    }

can be transformed to the simpler form:

  if (something_is_true)
    {
    perform some actions
    }
  redirect back to index.shtml

As far as the redirect goes, as long as you haven't output anything yet, you can just set a location header:

  header('Location: index.shtml');

Try this:

if ($condition) Header ('Location: page1.php');

else Header ('Location: page2.php');

You must make sure, however, that no HTML has been output to the browser before you call the Header() function. If you don't, this script will puke.

<?php

IF ($number == 0):
echo"Sorry, you do not have access to delete records.";

ELSE:{header("Location: deleteproject.php3");exit;}
ENDIF;
?>

What is wrong here?
