} header('Location:to_previous_page.php'); I got a problem ... when $foo == 'something' .. it wont redirect me to to_another_page.php .... but if I put die(); after calling header(); .. it will work ... is this the bug ? I use php 4.3.4 ... and Apache 2.x thanks

Another thing you need to know, header checks if the same header was output before, if yes, it is owerwriten by the second one. So if you write: header('Location: foo.php'); header('Location: bar.php'); only one header is output. You can pass false as the second parameter to header (replace parameter), in this case both headers are output.
