header("Location: ") problem

[Agarax]

Hi, I'm currently trying to get a site script where the content is pulled from a mysql db Im having trouble wiht one part though thats supposed to redirect to a phpbb forum and/or any other link in a directory.

Page displays but doesnt redirect.

<?PHP
include("includes/mySql.php");
connect_mySql('votfcouk_cms');
$get = select_query_mySql("*", "votf_cms", "page", $page);
$info = mysql_fetch_assoc($get);
$pagelist = "select page, linktext, linkpriority from votf_cms order by linkpriority";
$pagelist_res = mysql_query($pagelist,$conn) or die(mysql_error());
$linkto == $info['linkto']; 
$islink == $info['islink'];
if($islink == yes) {
header("Location: ".$linkto."");
}
else
{
?>
HTML
<?PHP } ?>

Everything worked fine until I added the linkto and islink stuff.

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks

first off, i would output the value of $info['linkto'];

print $info['linkto'];
//or
var_dump($info);

instead of the header(); line and check if the data makes sense when you use it in the context you are trying to.

i dont follow

header("Location: ".echo($linkto).""); ???

no - just echo out the value INSTEAD OF header() so you can check what value is actually passed.

Hi,

what does $info['islink'] contain ? The string yes ?

Use
print_r($info);
to print the contents of $info in a readable way.
