Due to the volume of reports we can not explain in detail here why your report is not a bug. The support channels will be able to provide an explanation for you. Thank you for your interest in PHP. constants aren't parsed in strings. header("Location: " . HOME); Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2008-03-19 12:53:41] ingo dot kasch at gmx dot de Description: ------------ Hi, while using a constant for defining a hyperlink-target (http-adress) and using this constand to do a header();redirect there comes an object not found-error (404) in the browser. The reason is that php could not interpret the value of the constant and using the constants name for the header();-function. Reproduce code: --------------- Not working code: <?php define('HOME', 'http://www.google.de'); header("Location: HOME"); ?> WORKING CODE: <?php define('HOME', 'http://www.google.de'); $home_var = HOME; header("Location: $home_var"); ?> Expected result: ---------------- I expected a redirct to the defined value of the constant, in this example 'http://www.google.de'. Actual result: -------------- The browser is redircting to /HOME using the actual url of the page and just adding /HOME (which is the name of the constant, not the value) in the end of the adress bar. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://bugs.php.net/?id=44479&edit=1
