header("location:.....")?

[Anon]

I want to collect info from a form, then submit the form and have it input the data from the form, then forward the user to a new page. The idea is to prevent multiple inserts of the same data. I wanted to implement transactions, i.e. BEGIN...COMMIT, but my provider doesn't allow them. So I was thinking I could have the data processing page use a header("Location: somepaage.php"); but I can't figure out how to use it

Hi,

To get the most info read http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php but here is an example..

If you want to redirect someone to a page make sure you have the "header" call before any output is sent to the user or the script will barf..

use something like an "if" call and then put

header("Location: http://www.example.com/script?data=whatever");
exit;

something like that.. i hope this helps..

thanks
