Is there any PHP native function to redirect to another page or URL? No, because you can only redirect a browser to another page using the appropriate HTTP command (it is a header) or JavaScript. I would like that once the user clicks on home.php4 and a few verifications are done, he/she would be redirected to home.html. You can issue a HTTP redirection command to the web browser by using PHP's Header() function. You'll want to use this kind of code: <? Header("Location: http://this.is.the.destination.com/directory/file.php"); ?>

I never had any trouble using header() to redirect, but wouldn't something like this work even better (without worring about previous outputs)?? function redirect($dest) {

        ?>
        <script language="JavaScript">
                parent.location.href='<?=$dest?>';
        </script>
        <?

} it would work wouldn't it? ____________________________ . Christian Dechery (lemming) . http://www.tanamesa.com.br . Gaita-L Owner / Web Developer
