I've used the form page with a the following code (at the bottom - but
before any output is done) to redirect to a thank you page:
if ($submittedcorrectly)
{
header("Location: thankyou.htm");
exit();
}

Subject: RE: [PHP] Self-Process php forms or not?
One last question about this:
I've done a self submit form, after hearing all the advantages expressed
here.
But how could we relate, without using javascript, a self submit form with a
"success page" or a "confirmation page" that doesn't show the form?
Can please someone throw me some infos about this please?
Ps- I've googled: "php redirect success page on self submit form" and
similar...
Regards,
Márcio
