Why wouldn't this redirect? The query works, but the page won't redirect. I have used the same two lines successfully on other pages. I'm very tired, it's probably obvious. <?php // assuming $uid, $itemid, $week, $cur_wk in querystring //connect to db $db = mysql_connect ("localhost","user","password"); mysql_select_db("mydb",$db); //update item - weekX to Taken and record buyer $sql = "update items set week" . $week . " = 'T', buyerID = " . $uid . " where itemID = " . $itemid; $result = mysql_query($sql); $redirurl = "bid.php?uid=" . $uid . "&itemid=" . $itemid; header ($redirurl); ?> G'Night Dean
