PHP automatically sends headers before anything is printed to the page. In other words, make sure that you put your header() call before any echo statements on the page. Not having the id value is a different problem. If you've just inserted something and need to get it out, there are functions to retrieve the most recent auto-increment value from the database. If you're using MySQL it is mysql_insert_id(). Katie Dewees Web Developer/PHP Programmer kdewees@bellsouth.net http://www.evans-young.com
