calling another script or page

[Anon]

is there any better way to call another script inside php script. I founded one but I wanna know is there any better way including this

echo "<meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"1;url=test5.php\">";

this works.

I tried header("Location: test5.php ");
it didn't work.

Header functions only works when no data is sent to the client. So you only can use header ("location: xxxx.php"); if you´re sure that the client did not receive any http-header-info or even outputed data.

The meta-tagg is correct when you want to show the page and then redirect within a few seconds to test5.php.
