Hi Philip, After working with PHP for 3 plus years now, I sure hope you're right eventually. My main reason for posting on this subject is that I just couldn't watch another thread pass by discussing problems with header() without bring it up... Another is that I'm getting a little tired of having to fix this in so many fine OpenSource releases; typing can be such a pain in the wrist! Actually, I thought it had a *slim* chance of catching a few peoples' attention that don't RTFM (or RFCs), including several commercial products that otherwise would produce somewhat decent code (names witheld to protect the guilty) :> Thanks for the response, and keep on PHP'in: John >> An example is: >> >> Location: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html >> >> I.E. header("Location: mypage.php") should not be used... > >Nobody will disagree with you on that :) About six weeks ago there was a ><note> added to the manual on this, the information will slowly sink in >the minds of all the little faithful manual reading PHP users :) > >Regards, >Philip Olson -- /* SteeleSoft Consulting John Steele - Systems Analyst/Programmer * We also walk dogs...
