1) How do you open a new page? (i.e., target="_blank")
you mean new window?
If so then you will need to load a page containing javascript.
2) Why doesn't the new URL show up in the address box on the browser?
basically this happens
Browser: Mr Server can i have page.php
Server: Yes let me run it through the PHP program
[Stage Directions: Server to go to next.php]
Server: Here is the page you asked for
Browser Thanks.
So the browser know nothing about the redirect 😉
3) Any advice on placement of the code as it seems to be very touchy about where it is placed. I need to have HTML code in with the script and I always receive the error message: PHP Warning: Cannot add header information - headers already sent by (output started at ...
www.codewalkers.com
There is a link to a tut on the index page whic covers output buttering used properly this wil stop header problems.
Have fun 😉
