Re: fsockopen to spit out the HTTP's Location...

Just couldn't get the browser perform the HTTP LOCATION event. >--snip-- >$host = "192.168.0.2"; >$port = 443; >$url_str = "ssl://www.whatever.com?str1=true&str2=false&str3=true"; > >$fp = fsockopen("ssl://".$host, $port, $errno, $errstr, $timeout = 30); >--snip-- > //send out to the browser..... > fputs($fp, "Location: ".$url_str."\r\n"); That won't get sent to the browser, it will get sent to 192.168.0.2, which is (I guess) some machine behind your router. You can't initiate a TCP connection -- what fsockopen does -- with the client's machine. I'll ask even though you said not to - Why doesn't header() work? --------------------------------------------------------------------- michal migurski- contact info and pgp key: sf/ca http://mike.teczno.com/contact.html
