RE: [PHP] Header

may be proper, but isn't required as relative URL's work just fine with the header function in PHP (assuming that is the topic)... use Header this was a few hundred times in code and functions that are used on multiple domains. eg:// Header("Location: ./myOtherPage.php?variable=value"); I am sure that server settings may have some play in this so if your server is croaking on that, your first troubleshooting step would be to include the FQDN and see if that resolves it.

Must be fully qualified with protocol, host, and anything extra, so yes, http://hostname/extra/ is needed. See section 14.30 of RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1) or section 10.11 of RFC 1945 (HTTP 1.0). The Location response-header field defines the exact location of the resource that was identified by the Request-URI. For 3xx responses, the location must indicate the server's preferred URL for automatic redirection to the resource. Only one absolute URL is allowed. Location = "Location" ":" absoluteURI An example is Location: http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/NewLocation.html -dan -- Dan Lowe <dan@tangledhelix.com> http://tangledhelix.com/ What happens if you get scared half to death twice? -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
