A couple of things occur: - make sure $edit has something valid in it (by temporarily echo-ing it just before the header call, if necessary); - rewrite your Location: header to be technically valid: (a) there should be a space between Location: and the URL, and (b) it really should contain an absolute URL, not a relative one, so: header("Location: http://www.example.com/path/to/itemadmin.php3?etc,etc").
