Header(Location: ...) doesn't work ...

[Anon]

Hi,

My problem: header(Location: ...) doesn't work with relativ URLs, only with absolute.

e. g.: header("Location: file.php") doesn't work - header("Location:http://www.mysite.net/file.php") works fine.

Configurations: PHP4, Win2k, Xitami-Webserver

Thanks

Try using :

<?php
header("Location: /myscript.php")
?>

That might do the trick ...

Thanks Jacob, but it doesn't work either. Result: 404-Error - I tried also header("Location: ./file.php") which doesn't work.

I know this seems a bit obvious, but make sure you have ";" at the end.

header ("location: mypage.php");

Thank you Paul,

sure I have and exit; also. Or I didn't configure php.ini well or it's a bug in PHP4. The same script with relative URLs works fine on a LAMP system (php3).

It works on my linux (RH 7.0)/apache 1.3.20/php4.0.6 box. What OS are ya running?

I have Windows 2000 running (see start topic) with Xitami Webserver (I had till now no problems with other scripts)
