Re: Using 'header' as redirect

Ok, I have modified my code a little bit. Stut, yes, output buffering was on by default (4096). I *think* this will work. It appears to be the same as before - still redirecting appropriately: <!-- index.php --> <? ob_start(); ?> <html> <head>...</head> <body> <? include ($subPage); ob_end_flush(); ?> </body> The subpage does not change any, only index.php. I am basically "holding off" on displaying the stuff between ob_start() and ob_end_flush(), unless it's header information. That way, if the subpage needs to redirect, it can without errors. Correct?

Indeed. Output buffering does exactly what it says on the tin - it buffers the output until the page execution finishes or it's explicitly flushed. Your ob_end_flush call is technically not needed unless you have a reason to end the buffering at that point. -Stut
