Why doesn't this work?

Why doesn't this work:

echo "<script>location.href='logado.php?<?php echo SID?>'</script>";

It doesn't pass the SID, as it does in a normal link... i use this when login is correct, what should i use instead of this?

Try


echo "<script>location.href='logado.php?SID={$SID}'</script>";

It still doesn't work that way... 🙁

I have this code in "login.php":

<?php
if ($submit) {

include("BDMySQL.class.php");
include("FSUtilizador.class.php");

$utilizador = new FSUtilizador();
if ($utilizador->verificarUtilizador($login, $password)==true) {
$login_status = 1;
$login_utilizador = "$login";

   echo "<script>location.href='logado.php?SID={$SID}'</script>";

} else {
echo "<script>location.href='errologin.php?SID={$SID}'</script>";
}
$utilizador->endFSUtilizador();

echo "</body>\n";
echo "</html>\n";
exit;
}
?>

I might be missing something here, but why have you put braces around the echo'd value of $SID?

echo "<script>location.href='logado.php?SID=" . $SID . "'</script>";

ALTHOUGH.....

Would you not be better to use the header() function built in to php? As long as your script hasn't sent any html out to the browser, you can use it and it will work far better than a browser initiated redirect:

header("Location: logado.php?SID=$SID");

SID is a constant, not a variable, hence you leave out the dollar sign.

Do you have cookies turned on? if you do, SID won't get a value as the session id will be stored in the session cookie.
