Launching PHP Script

[Rob_Watton]

Help

I have a small problem.

I have a simple IF statement which depending on the condition I want it to run another PHP script in the same window but clearing the window on launch of the external script.

eg.

if ($matches >0){
---->>> run EDITDATA.PHP here
}else
{
print "No results found";
}

Can anyone help ?

Regards

clearing? you mean replace it?

use
header("Location: newpage.php");

note: you may not have ANY output before this command

Thanks for the reply

I do have output before this command as the IF statement is run after the submit button is clicked a form previous displayed.

I fear there's no possibility to handle that with pure PHP then.

my suggestion: in the if-statement echo() a formular with your new
script as action= and a name="fw_form" (or sth else)
then insert a small javascript section, which performs a
document.fw_form.submit() (hope that's correct)

if you want, you can even pass data in this form, by using hidden
fields

i'm not that familiar with JS, just play a bit around
