setting url variables?

[ddalton]

How do I set a URL variable to something else once it is in the URL header

say I have passed a variable to a php script

http://www.test.com/index.php?br=1&query=test

in index.php I want to set br=0 but I am not calling the url a link but in the URL string I want br=0 and I dont want to do a header( Location:...) call:

$br= $HTTP_GET_VARS["br"];
$query=$HTTP_GET_VARS["query"];

if ($br==1 && $query!="")
{
$br=0;
$results=doquery($query);
echo($results);
}

I'm a bit confused by this. What are you trying to do? (What's an "URL header"?)

Are you saying you want to do $HTTP_GET_VARS['br']=0;? Why pass it br=1 in the first place, then?

the php function :

header( Location:$PHP_SELF?br=0 );
I resolved this problem another way.
