[PHP] location= Construct Doc
Hi... I'm looking at an existing application that uses a number of statements like: location = page2.php; I thought I'd seen it somewhere in the PHP doc, but can't find it now.. Can anyone point me to where it's written up? Thanks, Lee -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

I see the Location: of the Header function there, but what I see in the code is just a location = and a page name... No header function... Is it the same thing?

Can anyone point me to where it's written up? The HTTP header itself is defined in RFC 2616 in section 14.30: -- 14.30 Location The Location response-header field is used to redirect the recipient to a location other than the Request-URI for completion of the request or identification of a new resource. For 201 (Created) responses, the Location is that of the new resource which was created by the request. For 3xx responses, the location SHOULD indicate the server's preferred URI for automatic redirection to the resource. The field value consists of a single absolute URI. Location = Location : absoluteURI An example is: Location: http://www.w3.org/pub/WWW/People.html Note: The Content-Location header field (section 14.14) differs from Location in that the Content-Location identifies the original location of the entity enclosed in the request. It is therefore possible for a response to contain header fields for both Location and Content-Location. Also see section 13.10 for cache requirements of some methods. -- PHP can send HTTP headers using the header() function: http://www.php.net/header Hope that helps.

So the dollar sign is missing? Can you show us all of the code in
question? (Or did I miss it?)

Location is an HTTP header. If that name is being used in any code for
some other reason, then the name may be purely coincidental. However, if
it is the header you are speaking of, then it is specified using:
header('Location: http://example.org/path/to/script.php');
Of particular note is that the URL is an absolute URL, not a relative one.
This is in the snippet of the specification that I quoted earlier.
Hope that helps.

Never seen that before and the only time I've seen variables without a $ is for a constant, but then again I don't think you can set a constant dynamically, i.e. constant = value; (hence the name constant). If you're not already doing it, posting the code would be good. Chris. -- Don't like reformatting your Outlook replies?
