YES you should have a space after the Location: part and YES you should have an absolute URL, *but* most modern browsers won't care if you haven't - the following works perfectly on IE6/Opera7/Firefox - no matter how malformed it looks: Header(Location:page2.php); Chris provided the solution to the original problem in his reply, but I just wanted to bring this up. The OP should of course modify his header statements, but its unlikely to resolve his problem on its own. -- Best regards, Richardmailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

EB That's pretty wierd
EB Think i'll do some research on headers, need more info anyway ;)
EB But did my tip work in your script when you took a space there?
EB Just wondering...
EB Eric
No it still doesnt work ... I have to put die() or exit() after
calling the header(); and whether I put space and not using space
.. the result still same .. ( I am get used not to use space for
almost 1 year .. and suddenly I just know that I should put space :) )
In my logic, after we call header('location: foo.php'); the php
processor should terminated and open the page foo.php instead ...

Except that doesn't happen. See my other reply on this subject.

is this the bug ?
You're joking, right? Your second header statement is outside the if/else loop, so
it's
executed every time, obviously. This in turn means that your script will always
redirect to
previous_page.php, unless, of course, you kill it before it gets to the second
header
statement. Suggestion: read up on control structures (chapter 11 in the PHP manual).

[PHP] Re: weird header() (bug may be)
This is not a bug. Here you expect that the script should end executing
after the statement:header('Location:to_another_page.php') if the if
statement is true. But it won't and it proceeds to the next statement;
the next header statement:header('Location:to_previous_page.php');
An exit statement after the first header will solve the problem. With
most browsers, if multiple redirect headers are received, the last
instruction is followed. I'm not sure what the RFC says about this.

Headers have to be pretty accurate, or it will cause trouble.
And your redirect header is not quite correct.
It should be this:
header(Location: another_page.php);
and NOT header(Location:another_page.php);
What you need here is a space between Location: and the URL.
