Re: Re: Redirecting to a new page

And while 'gurix' is correct, the function you're probably looking for is 'header()', as in header("Location: admin.php"); Cheers Pete Php wrote:

hea a better way is to include your admin pages. if ($myrow[Admin] == "Y"){ include("admin.php"); }else{ include("user.php") ; } so you can also include at the top of this example a general header with menu's etc. gurix "Matt Stewart" <matt@netvirtua.com> schrieb im Newsbeitrag news:95C78551DA8AD41182CB00E018C2447E285D2D@comms.netvirtua.int...

yeah, i know this, but i'm just trying to get this to work before i add

some

security in there - passing sessions through etc to ensure they're logged

in

as admin etc. it doesn't really have to be that secure for what i want anyway, but probably a good job you pointed that out ;) -----Original Message----- From: Fred [mailto:fred.nospam.please@querymagic.com] Sent: 04 January 2002 21:18 To: php-db@lists.php.net Subject: [PHP-DB] Re: Redirecting to a new page Please note, that this is a very insecure way of determining which page a person gets to view. All they would have to do is enter the admin.php url in the browser and they get admin access even if they are not admins.

Can't find the right instructions on php.net, basically, i want a page

where

someone logs in, and then according to the database entry for them,

either

they are an admin user or a normal user, and it should then send them to

a

page depending on which they are. I've accessed the db ok, and checked which they are, then i've used if ($myrow[Admin] == "Y"){ print "Location:admin.php"; }else{ print "Location:user.php"; ) this doesn't sem to work - just gives a blank screen with the standard

html

headers and footers, rather than the desired location page. --- Outgoing mail is certified Virus Free. Checked by AVG anti-virus system (http://www.grisoft.com). Version: 6.0.312 / Virus Database: 173 - Release Date: 31/12/01
