Description:
------------
This bug is identical to bug #25044.
When a form is posted to a PHP script, and that script wants to forward
the browser to another page, the correct HTTP response header code is
303.
But, when setting the "Location" HTTP header using the header()
function, PHP automatically changes the HTTP response status to "302
Found".
This is important because some mobile browsers (Specifically Motorola
V360 and Nokia 6310i) will *not* immediately redirect a script that
received a post when the code is 302, but *will* when the code is 303.
I have recreated this problem on both IIS 6 and Apache.
NOTE: The suggested workarounds in bug #25044 do *not* work.
Reproduce code:
---------------
<?php
header('Status: 303 See Other');
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
die();
?>
---OR---
<?php
header('HTTP/1.1 303 See Other');
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
die();
?>
Expected result:
----------------
HTTP/1.1 303 See Other
Location: http://www.example.com/
Actual result:
--------------
HTTP/1.0 302 Moved
Location: http://www.example.com/
