Bug description: header interpretation problem
Description:
------------
I was using the header function to create a redirect using the "Location"
HTTP header. It seems that Apache is sensitive about the syntax of the
header sent.
In the general format <header-name>: <header value> there must be no space
between the <header-name> and the proceeding ":" (colon).
eg. header("Location : www.somesite.php");
Somehow any spaces between the two doesn't allow the header to be
interpreted properly under Apache (1.xx) and as a result it does not
produce the desired result (redirection in my case) but it works out fine
on IIS 5.0
I spent an hour trying to debug this, hope someone will benefit from this.
