Getting error with $_GET

[norfy]

I've created a redirect page that I pass a querystring called url to, for example www.mysite.com/redirect.php?url=anotherpage.php . My redirect page only has the following code at the top of it:

<?php
header("HTTP/1.1 303 REDIRECT");
header("Location:" .$_GET("URL");

exit;

?>

Is this enough because i am getting a parse error on line 3

Any ideas

The HTTP/1.1 303 REDIRECT header is redundant; the Web server should generate that automatically.

The problem is here, and there are several:

header("Location:" .$_GET("URL");

1. To reference an array member, use square brackets, not parentheses.

2. PHP variable names are case-sensitive. URL and url are not the same thing.

3. There must be a space between the key and the value in an HTTP header.

4. You need to read the section of the manual that explains how PHP parses variables inside double-quoted strings.

This should work:

<?
header("Location: $_GET[url]");
?>

Also make sure that there are no empty lines before <?

I forget this many times. The code must start on the first line.
