HTTP Redirect

[saphju]

Hi,

im trying to do a redirect page when someone logs in to the site. Here is my code:

header("Location: [url]http://[/url]" . $SERVER['HTTP_HOST'] . dirname($SERVER['PHP_SELF']) . "/" . $relative_url, true);
exit;

when i try to run this code it gives me an error message:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by ...

Any suggestions how to make this redirect page work?
Thanks.

Major FAQ. You did note that there is a seach feature here? :rolleyes:

No whitespace nor output prior to [man]header/man ... 😉

I created a new php file that only contains the header(location)for my redirection and tried deploying it on a apache windows platform and the redirection works fine. Why wont it work on a unix platform? Thanks.

would there be another way to do php redirection aside from header(location)?

in php, you could use include() or require() but that isn't really redirecting....you could use html meta tags

<meta http-equiv=Refresh content="0; url=http://www.phpbuilder.com/"> 

or even javascript

<script language="javascript">
top.location.href("http://www.phpbuilder.com/");
</script>
