sending a user to a page

[Ravrflavr]

I have a login in script that checks the username and password against the database and based on that validation. IE if the username and password are correct send them to a page say test.php, and if not send them back to the login page i tried putting headera(Location:"www.mysite.com/blah.php" but it errors saying it cant change the header information. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks

You have to call the header() function before you output ANYTHING to the browser. Outputting so much as a space will cause a nasty error message to appear.
