redirect after login

barnkin

I am noob...now that I said that:

I am using a simple login script and would like it to redirect ot another page after login, I have looked at many examples and just keep getting lost.
The script is:

<?php
$username = $POST['user'];
$password = $POST['pass'];
if (!$POST['pass'] && !$POST['user']) {
?>
<html><b>Member Login</b>
<br><form method="POST">Username:
<br><input type="text" name="user" value="">
<br>Password:
<br><input type="text" name="pass" value="">
<br><input type="submit" name="submit" value="Login">
<?php
} else {
mysql_connect ("localhost", "user", "pass") or die ('My SQL Error: ' . mysql_error());
mysql_select_db ("database");
$stuff = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM member WHERE username='".$username."' AND password='".$password."'") or die("MySQL Login Error: ".mysql_error());

if (mysql_num_rows($stuff) > 0) {
echo("Logged in");
} else {
echo("Login Incorrect. Please Try Again!");
}

}
?>

Thanks in advance.

You can use [man]header[/man] to redirect as long as there's no output before it. Seeing as you're in a conditional and the only output comes from the first check, you should be able to replace your echo statement with the redirect.

if (mysql_num_rows($stuff) > 0) {
   header('Location: some_page.php');
}
