note 78967 added to function.header

This happened to me with PHP5. I couldn't work it out and then I read a post which gave me this code. I changed it into a function... may need modifications made if you want to redirect outside your own server. function redirect($page){ $host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']; $uri = rtrim(dirname($_SERVER['PHP_SELF']), '/\\'); header("Location: http://$host$uri/$page"); } this is to be called with an exit clause afterwards. This applies especially if you have more than one redirect in the same script. Example... if($this != $that){ redirect('mypage.php'); exit; } ---- Server IP: 203.220.0.234 Probable Submitter: 203.161.122.210 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/78967 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/78967 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/78967 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
