Hey Lisa, it's very simple. You was on the right way! The reason that you got the error 'header already sent': you did NOT use header at the top of your script! There we're some bytes send to the client! So your header only can be sent if the client did not receive some data!!! Below an example of the structure of the script: <?php // form has been submitted if(isset($submit) { // (check if password exists) { Yes: header("Location: securepage.php"); } else { No : header("Location: error.php"); } else { // form has not been submitted // print form ?> <input type='text' name='x'> <input type='submit' name='submit'> <? } ?> Success!!!!
