RE: [PHP] POST without a button

I don't believe it matters where your headers are printed within your script. As long as you don't print a content-type header before your location header then you should be fine placing the header anywhere in your script. However, I've never used the POST method with a location header. I've always used the GET method. I'm not sure how to call another script with the POST method using a location header. Hope this helps a little. ---------------------------------------------------------------------------- Bradley M.

After PHP4 stuffs some of the data into a database, it needs to POST to a remote html file. The PHP4 file is invisible, generates no HTML except in the case of an error. How do I invisibly do another post without putting up a submit button? I thought of using header("location:"), but I understand from the manual that headers should go at the very top of the file, and I want the entire file to execute, then jump to the new address. ************************************************* Ron Newman Troubadour Technology http://www.imt.net/~ronman/ ************************************************* -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
