First, put a call to ob_start(); on the very first line of the page.

Then, use this in your IF loop:

header("Location:index.php");
exit();

no, that's not what i want.....

i want to reload the feedback page....
feedback.php?step=confirm

and the first fuction of the page is to check if the step is confirm, it it is "confirm" then, just load the word thank you....not loading the form on the feedback.php page...

here's the full source, help me,

<?
include("header.in");
include("connect.in");
?>

<?

if ($step=="confirm")
{
$r = "insert into guestbook(name,location,email,homepage,comment) values(\"$name\",\"$location\",\"$email\",\"$homepage\",\"$comment\")";
mysql_query($r, $db);
print "<h1>THANK YOU!</H1>";
print "<font color=\"red\" size=\"9\"> $name </font>";
}
?>
<center>

<table cellpadding="0" cellspacing="1" border="0" width="85%">
<tr><td align="top"><p align=justify>
<BR>
<font color="#d5d5d5" size="3">

<FORM action="feedback.php?step=confirm" METHOD="post">
Your Name: <INPUT TYPE="text" name="name"><BR>
Location: <input type="text" name="location"><BR>
Email: <input type="text" name="email"><BR>
Homepage : <input type="text" name="homepage"><BR>
Comment: <input type="textarea" name="comment"><BR>
<input type="submit" value="post">
</form>

<?
$data=mysql_query("select name, location, email, homepage, comment from guestbook order by id desc", $db);
while ($text=mysql_fetch_row($data))
{
print ("<hr>");
print ("<b>Name:</b><t> " . $text[0] . '<BR>');
print ("<b>Location:</b> " . $text[1] . '<BR>');
print ("<b>Email: </b><a href=\"mailto:$text[2]\">$text[2]</a><br>");
print ("<b>Homepage: </b><a href=\"$text[3]\">$text[3]</a><br>");
print ("<b>Comment: </b> " . $text[4] . '<BR>');
print ("<BR>");

}

?>

if/else will do what you want (not the loading, which would require each body to be in an include-file, but it will prevent the execution.)
