Redirecting

by **elitecodex** » Tue Jul 09, 2002 8:49 am

I am having a problem getting my PHP scripts to redirect. This is what I use:

Code: Select all: header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com"); exit();

or something of that nature. The script just halts and doesnt do anything. What am I doing wrong? Any help is greatly appreciated. Thanks

Hi!
In manual some peaple wrote:
Make sure that code below does not get executed when we redirect.
Try change your:

Code: Select all: header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com"); exit();

at the

Code: Select all: header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com"); exit;

Maybe this helped to you

I managed to get some of my scripts to work. They only seem to not redirect when I include a certain file. This file is nothing but full of functions that help layout my page (Link Here) . I have checked and double checked, and have not seen anywhere where I put any kind of output (Unless certain functions are specifcally called). You will notice that I also include another page where I keep my stats (Link Here). Again, I dont see how I output anything. What else is keeping my pages from redirecting? I have tried all the before-mentioned ideas, same result. I thank everyone for any help in advance.

You can make redirect via HTML I dont remeber how, but somthing like this:

Code: Select all: base=<linkmake> refresh=0

That is this?

Code: Select all: $returnValue = $returnValue . "<table border="0" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" style="width: 100%">"; $returnValue = $returnValue . "<tr><td style="text-align: center; font-weight: 600; font- size: smaller; background-color: #DDDDFF; color: #000000;">Battle Poll</td></tr>"; $returnValue = $returnValue . "<tr><td style="font-size: smaller;">What feature would you like to see next on BattlePages.com?</td></tr>"; $returnValue = $returnValue . "<tr><td> </td></tr>"; $returnValue = $returnValue . StartMyPoll_ShowResults("next_feature", "VE Manager", "nf_vem", $ref)

Why you using variables like that:

Code: Select all: $setVar= $seVar."bla, bla, bla";

or you have very powrfull server?
most programmer not using thats princeples.

If i write some site lake this, i'm using templates

Sorry, but as I said before, Im kinda new to this web programming envirnoment. I just started coding and didnt really think of any other options (Lack of planning). The site seems to run fine for right now, but if performance becomes an issue, i will definately change it.

Did you happen to see anything in there that would stop a redirect from working though? Im still stomped on that.

Thanks

If you are using mixed html-php in the manner of:
<HTML>
.... more html stuff
<?php
.... more php stuff
header("Location: http://www.somehwere.com");
exit;
?>

It will likely fail. header is a function that puts things out in the http header, and php will not allow you to put out header stuff after it has already finished with it. This is true for cookies as well, any output that has already occurred will cause a problem in these situations.

One thing I use is ob_start(): see http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.ob-start.php

This way php will buffer all output before sending it. You can then add header information.

<?php ob_start() ?>
<HTML>
.....
<?php
header("Location: http://www.somwhere.com");
exit;
?>

PS: Make sure that you do it in this manner:
<?php ob_start(); .... ?>
and NOT in this manner:
<?php
ob_start();
....
?>
and also make sure it is the very first line in whatever file you are using it in.
