Condition statement help

[buddy]

Hello all,

I'm new to php, I tried to write a simple code like:

goto=$_GET["url"];
if ($a=$b){
header("location: $goto");
}
else{
echo"something wrong";
exit;
}

Now I try to add another condition under header("location: $goto");
if (empty($goto)){
header("location: http://default.com");
{

I tried this code but didn't work, help please!

Thanks

buddy

And what did it do instead?

if (empty($goto)){
header("location: http://default.com");

You're leaving it a bit late if you put it there - you've already sent a "Location: $goto" header by then, so there's not a lot of point sending another one. Try putting it before that line.

Hi,

I see a problem at
if ($a=$b){
You might want to change it to
if ($a==$b){

Thanks tsinka,
that's just an example, the code is
if ($a==$b){
But thanks anyway.

Weedpacket, you got the point,
I moved the if empty before it goes anywhere, and it works!

Thanks a lot!🙂

try this. I also added an exit statement at the end right after the header. This way code will stop there.

if (empty($_GET[goto])){
header("location: http://default.com");
exit;

}
