Redirecting issues

[Wingman]

Hi there, I want to redirect from a php/html directly to a thread inside a forum page. Now this is currently working if someone is logged in, but if the person has to login or register I need a code to redirect after the person has done so. Having done some searching I end up with this...

From my news.php

<?php

echo "<a href='localhost/Forum/thread.php?threadID=10'>Next Page</a>";

?>

Here comes the part where I am rather not that sure about what to do.

login.php

<?php

$redirect = $_GET['threadID'];


?> 

What should I add in the login.php to make it work?

Do you mean "redirect" or "supply a link"? If the latter, as your first example implies, you could do this:

$redirect = $_GET['threadID']; 
echo '<a href="localhost/Forum/thread.php?threadID=' . $redirect . '">Next Page</a>';

no, i want a direct redirection.

Do it like this then

$redirect = "index.php?module=forms&postid=18";
header ("LOCATION: $redirect");
