Cannot open an url...

[yankleber]

Hi there,

My doubt is simple, but seems without solution for me!
I just put a button on my form, that allows user to be driven to the homepage if he clicks there. Then, the only thing the script should do is open index.html file.

What I did:

ini_set('allow_url_fopen','1'); 
$filename = "index.html"; 
$fd = fopen ($filename, "r") or die("Could not open file"); }

But the script simply does nothing.

Where is my mistake?

Thanks!

how can you tell if the script is doing nothing? You've not told it to output anything, so you wouldn't know if it was doing anything or not!

If you are trying to send the user to a different page, may I suggest that you try the HTML tag <a> to do so.

Couldn't you expend your time to give a more construtive answer than write unusefull observations?
