how to redirect with php

[Anon]

hi,

is it possible to redirect to another pages (like redirect with asp)

thanks

IDK about how asp does it but many people use header for such things. see header() in manual.

header("Location: http://www.example.com");
exit;

Note (as quoted from manual) : "Remember that the Header() function must be called before any actual output is sent either by normal HTML tags or from PHP."

It would be a nice if a more 'friendly' php way to redirect existed.

Yeah, wouldn't it.
Its a real headache because I run the php files from a cgi-bin on a different URL, so I pretty much have to use frames, and of course if I use a standard header to open the page I get a whole new page in the main frame, I'll sort it sooner or later though 🙂
