weird version conflict

jassh

hi there all..

i just want to ask some opinion...
just to make sure..

the case is like this:

i normally do my php in my local pc
(PHP 4.3.0 and MYSQL 3.23 all install default)

i tested my script and it work find..

but when i uploaded my script to my hosting..
it went all error..
i noticed my server are only using php ver 4.1.2

this are the following line of code that gives trouble..

header("Location: [url]http://[/url]".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/"."index.php");

and also this one..

mysql_free_result($myresult);

and also this one

session_start();
session_register("name");
$name = "myself";
?>

now.. the error msg are something like this:

Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/sites/site139/web/php/index.php :10) in /home/sites/site139/web/php/index.php :10 on line 41

weird thing is..
it works fine on my local pc..

can anyone shine some light on this..

thanks in advanced

header("Location: [url]http://[/url]".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'].dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])."/"."index.php");

kind of strange location you are trying to redirect to, wonder why it works at your local machine
it should be :

header("Location: protocol://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"].$_SERVER["SCRIPT_NAME"]);

mysql_free_result($myresult);

more code plz...

session_start();
session_register("name");
$name = "myself";
?>

do you print any headers or echo something before session_start() ?

edit : entered wrong code :eek:
edit 2 : board is interpreting my code faulty when I type [url]http://[/url] !
replace protocol by http

the a href tag within the header is probably just results from "Automatically parse URLs" being enabled in the original post as well.

I'd print it instead of actually redirecting to see what the url looks like

echo "Location: http://".$_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']
                      .dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF'])
                      ."/".$relative_url;

may also make sense to run phpinfo() and check which server variables are available.
