Re: [PHP] In need of a script

[Jason Sheets]

One thing to be aware of, Location: /newpage.php will probably work with 
most browsers (I know it works with IE, Mozilla and Opera) but the spec 
requires an absolute path  to the file you are redirecting to including 
protocol, server, path and file.  As Wouter demonstrated you should 
always die() after a redirect request because it is just that, a request 
that the client is not required to follow.

Though no parse error, it can result in an notice about 'undefined index' ..
I'd prefer
<?php
if (isset($_COOKIE['pagename'])) {
        header('Location: /newpage.php');
        die;
};
?>
Taking care of three things:
        - No undifined index notice
        - the cookie can also have a value that evaluates to false
        - the 'die;' makes sure the script really ends .. sometimes, somehow for
some
          undefined reason it does not stop after a header..
