Why not a simple if statement to check if the function worked and then

Well... I've got three reasons for that...
1. I never use include() for redirection. It was never meant to be
used for that anyway.
2. If you use include() you're only using up more memory. And I
don't know 'bout you, but I always try to write as efficient as I
can.
3. When you redirect someone, you want them to go to a different
page don't you? Using include() they still stay on the same page.
They only get a different content.
So... using header() instead of include() is more efficient i.m.o.
And besides that; my projects get pretty large. In that case it's
smart to keep your code 'easy-to-track'. If you start including
instead of redirecting it only gets more complex tracking the flow
of the site. And that while include() offers no advantages.
[ I.m.o. ]

Redirecting was brought in by someone who replied to the post. I would also use header() but if the poster is looking for a quick "plug in" solution without having to alter any output he's already made, include or require are the simplest way. Whilst overhead is important, is taking a day to rewrite a complex script worth the tiny amount of speed/memory saving he might make? M Well, okay... I've read the original msg from J.R. again and indeed, he doesn't want to redirect. My answ was mainly based on the post from D.B. [ To J.R. ] Having read the org. msg.; I don't know if you are trying to do this. Anyway... You can also create the HTML/PHP-page you want to show, and then put the update statement at the beginning. Something like the following pseudo: # Result page - Update table - HTML -- html-content - /HTML This doesn't make much of a difference with including the HTML-part though. It's just what you like more...

?php

function redirect( $url, $message = "", $delay = 0 )

/* redirects to a new URL using meta tags */
echo "meta http-equiv='Refresh' content='".$delay."; url=".$url."'";
if ( !empty( $message ) )
die( "div style='font-family: Arial, Sans-serif; font-size: 12pt;'

Is there a way, once updating a table to load another PHP?
After, I have the
user click on the save button, the code calls a update
routine. After the
UPDATE is done, I want the code to call another progam.
Thank you.
Jim
Yep... the header-function should work. There's only one nasty
restriction... You can only use the header-function BEFORE ANY OTHER
OUTPUT HAS BEEN GENERATED.
