help with php die function

[The_broken]

ok heres my index.php script... I wish when it died it would go to a file...

Is there a way to make it go like this

die (" goto link ");

I hope this makes sense....

This is the template I would like it to go to if possible.

http://domain.com/index.php/?x=error

<?php
if (isset($GET['x'])) {
$target_page=$GET['x'];
$target_page=$target_page.".html";

    if (file_exists($target_page)) {

        include ($target_page);
    } 
        else {

            die ("Sorry, such file doesn't exist - please select again");
        }
    }

else {

include('template/main.php');

}

?>

thanks

Try this:

<?php
if (isset($GET['x']))
{
$target_page=$GET['x'];
$target_page=$target_page.".html";

 if (file_exists($target_page))
 { 
      include ($target_page); 
 } 
 else
 { 
      header('LOCATION: pageYouWant.php');
 } 

}
else
{
include('template/main.php');
}

?>

Be sure to NOT send any page output before the header redirect line or you will get an error.

Just a FYI JIC, if you end up doing a location redirect, keep in mind that unless you use the exit() or die() construct right after the header location call, the rest of the current page will still execute despite the redirect. Of course that might be the intent.
