I am having a hard time with a small piece of code. I was wondering
if someone may be able to explain why the following code will not work... I
have been scratching my head for a few hours now and I am stumped.
<?php
header("Location: http://someplace.com");
At this point, you have specified that you want the header "Location: http://someplace.com" to be sent when headers are sent -- but headers are not sent until you output some actual content to your page. So...
if( ! headers_sent())
... headers haven't been sent yet, so this test always triggers, so...
header("Location: http://somplaceelse.com");
... this call always executes, specifying that, actually, you want *this* Location header to be sent when headers are sent, not the one specified before.
I haven't the faintest idea what you might be trying to achieve here, but I think you need to rethink the logic of how you choose which redirect to use.
Cheers!
Mike
