Hi, TR> Any whitespace in any file before the <?php will cause data to be sent TR> to the browser forcing the headers to be sent. So make sure the first TR> line of your page has <?php and it is a good idea to drop the ?> from TR> included pages as there may be blank lines following which are just as TR> bad. So the rule is, header() can go anywhere but before any output to TR> the browser. TR> -- TR> regards, TR> Tom One other little rule: get into the habit of putting the full url in location, it will save you grief down the line :) To redirect to the same page for example $url = "http://".$_SERVER["HTTP_HOST"].$_SERVER["PHP_SELF"]; header("Location: $url"); -- regards, Tom
