note 22804 deleted from function.header by victor

I created a script that redirected to a certain URL using: header("Location: http://www.chexbox.com/"); and then went to yahoo.com. Then I came back and refreshed and it redirected without disabling the forward button so it doesn't overwrite the pages that I had visited that were in my history ahead of the script. If you want it to overwrite that then use a meta tag in your HTML's header tags such as: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="3; url=http://www.chexbox.com/"> Which could be used as an alternative to the header-location. You could also use a function to handle your redirects such as: function meta_redirect($url="", $delay=1) { ?><meta http-equiv="refresh" content="<?php print $delay; ?>; url=<?php print $url; ?>"><?php }
