There are several ways... On could look something like:

if (!empty($somevar)) {
header ('Location: http://www.host.com/page.php?kode='.$somevar);
}

...or...

if (!empty($kode)) {
switch($kode) {
case "542": include('somepage.php'); break;
case "543": include('other.php'); break;
default: include('notfound.php'); break;
}
}

Written on the fly, not tested, but might give some ideas.

hey one more addition to what Thomasson said...
you cant output anything prior tp the header function...u'll get a parse error if you do so...
a better solution to do it {if you have to echo) soemthing prior to use of header is to use javascript -> window.location(path)...
this certainly helps..

also as Thomasson said option of including files...that is a better way out..but even here you need to be careful as to not to reoccur variables in the outer file...else the whole code cud go for a toss...

regs,

...or (more to add)...

ob_start()

"While output buffering is active no output is sent from the script (other than headers), instead the output is stored in an internal buffer." -php.net
