Header redirects in Safari

[moggy]

Hi chaps,

I'm having an issue with Safari on OSX (both latest versions) not acting on normal header redirects. It's working fine on other browsers, and I have ob_start() and ob_end_flush() around the header.

Any ideas?

Thanks!

Test with this script:

<?php
header("Location: http://php.net");
exit;
?>

Also, you might want to provide the smallest and simplest script that demonstrates the problem, like my example.

Hey, thanks, that works fine, but my pages are still not.

Safari is adding this on to the end of the url -

?------------0xKhTmLbOuNdArY%0D%0AContent-Disposition:%20form-data;%20name=%22action%22%0D%0A%0D%0Acalc%0D%0A

...several times!

Any ideas?

Ideas? Yes. Follow laserlight's advice and...

provide the smallest and simplest script that demonstrates the problem

$findme  = '?'; 
    $pos = strpos($_SESSION['shop_return_url'], $findme); 

if ($pos === false) { 
  header('Location: ' . $_SESSION['shop_return_url'] . '?action=added_confirm_sample'); 
} else { 
    header('Location: ' . $_SESSION['shop_return_url'] . '&action=added_confirm_sample'); 
} 

...works fine other than in safari, and the same for

header('Location: ' . $PHP_SELF . '?action=oops'); 

also doesn't work in the site, although I put just this on a test page and it worked okay. Is this enough info for you?

Thanks guys... ;-)

What do you see when you...

echo $_SESSION['shop_return_url'];

?

...and make sure you 'exit' after you write the header.
