sessions and html refresh

foxden

I've got a page that performs user authentication and registers all the users information from a Db.
I'm using "get" and $PHPSELF in the HTML form, the problem is that dynamic content is displayed for that particular user, but this information is pulled from the Db and registered into the users session.
It is not displaying the registered variables without a browser refresh. I'm trying to echo a meta refresh after the session variables are registered, but that isn't working b/c the header information was already sent.
Is this going to be possible to use on a single page? Or, will I need to login on one page, register the variables, and force the users to click a new link?

Thanks for any advice,

Josh

yeah.. the Solution is simple..
Do the following thig..

<?php
Your Db Enrty/checking code will be here
And after completing the authentication procedure..

echo("<head><title>Please wait.... we are logging you out!</title>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"Refresh\" CONTENT=\"2; URL=index.php\">
</head>
<body topmargin=\"150\" marginheight=\"150\" bgcolor=\"#000000\">
thank you for logging in<br>
If your browser is unable to redirect within 10 seconds, please <a href=\"next_file_name.html\"><font color=\"#FFFF00\">click here</font></a>
</body>

");

Hope it will work..
