Redirect problem ?

[rsterenborg]

Hi all,

I'm using the following redirect :

<?php
$stServer=$HTTP_POST_VARS['SearchEngine'];
$stQuery=$HTTP_POST_VARS['Query'];
header("Location: $stServer$stQuery");
?>

Okay, I don't need the vars, but this works fine except for one thing.
When I have been redirected, and hit the back button on the browser to search again with another engine I cannot use the redirect anymore, until I've typed a new url in the address-bar and then go back to the redirect page.

I also tried the <meta ..etc...> tag, but this has the same effect.
I am using PHP-4.0.6 on Apache_1.3.20.

Does anyone know the solution ?

Tia.

Which browser are you using? I have had trouble with NS and the header function. It's a long shot but have you tried using output buffering? NS and IE sometimes beahve differently when using the Back button or the js history back function, if a server side script is involved.

I am using IE5.5 and have tried output buffering but it didn't solve my problem.
I could try not to use a SSI, but that's something for after my holliday :o)
