RE: [PHP] redirecting to a url..

Me, I have 2 functions. 1 I call - immediate and other refresh.. the difference is one as the name implies is immediate - (like chris pointed out below ) -> header('Location: http://yoursite.org/us/index.php'); The other is more of a refresh kind, waits a default of 2 secs (for me so that I can show a warning message before it redirects.. function header_refresh_html($l_refresh_url) { // This is taken from php-manual header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past header("Last-Modified: " . gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s") . " GMT"); // always modified header("Cache-Control: no-store, no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1 header("Cache-Control: post-check=0, pre-check=0", false); header("Pragma: no-cache"); // HTTP/1.0 header( "Refresh:2;url=$l_refresh_url" ); // Wait default of 2 seconds } Cheers, Mun Heng, Ow H/M Engineering Western Digital M'sia DID : 03-7870 5168 -----Original Message----- From: Chris Shiflett [mailto:shiflett@php.net] Sent: Friday, July 18, 2003 11:46 PM To: Louie Miranda; php-general@lists.php.net Subject: Re: [PHP] redirecting to a url.. --- Louie Miranda <louie@axishift.ath.cx> wrote: > echo "<meta http-equiv=\"REFRESH\" CONTENT=\"0; > URL=us/index.php\">"; > > Or you may have other more advance alternatives? You can use a protocol redirect rather than relying on HTML: header('Location: http://yoursite.org/us/index.php'); Chris ===== Become a better Web developer with the HTTP Developer's Handbook http://httphandbook.org/
