The importance of fully reading the docs! If you do use the location setting of the header to redirect to another page, do not forget to throw in that "exit;" as the documents say to prevent further execution of script code. This is critical if you are redirecting to another page in response to an error. I glazed over this small issue and found a number of "surprises" in my database when testing my registration system. The only reason I realized I was doing it wrong was when I got an email from the script saying I had registered when it was erroneous input.
