You're joking, right? Your second "header" statement is outside the if/else loop, so it's executed every time, obviously. This in turn means that your script will always redirect to "previous_page.php", unless, of course, you kill it before it gets to the second "header" statement. Suggestion: read up on control structures (chapter 11 in the PHP manual).
