when i go to a php script , i want it to finish executing whats in the script and then call another script - i tried include but it doesnt work - can somebody tell me what to do?? i need to do something similar to a message board. there is a post a new message option in the first page where there are a list of messages. this option takes u to the second page where u can post the message. on submitting the new message, i want the script to enter the datd into the table and then go back to page 1. i know this might sound silly... but i am at loss as to how to do it. help please...

use the
Header("Location: vote-and-change.php4?" . SID);
function, this one takes you to the vote-and-change.php4 page (including the session id) only thing you need to take care of, you can't send any output to the browser before the header statement, but if you only want to put data in a db you don't need any output ..

Devshed uses a <meta-refresh> tag...I'm trying to find something I can reply to so I can get the syntax for you...

This will wait two seconds and refresh to the URL given. Include this line in the <head> portion of your code...

Hope that helps.
