2. i see an example where a form in a login.html submits to "authcheck.php" but authcheck.php just prints ('User not found in LDAP' or 'error occured' or 'success'). how can authcheck.php redirect the user to... say.. BACK to the login.html and tell it "yes or no" and then have login.html either direct the user to a different data entry page (if the login was good), or display "sorry, try again" - all from the 1 form's "submit"
If ($auth != true) { header('Location: http://www.example.com/login.html');
exit; This will potentially save you some headaches.... Read more at: http://php.net/header
