Re: [PHP] How to run a script leaving screen output of previous script

2002-03-04 Thread hugh danaher

Alex,
If your link.php page has zero output to the screen, then you can do your
database action and return to your main page by using a header command.

header(location: mypage.php);

On your link.php code, there should be no lines of code nor blank lines
before the
?php call and no echo or print statements within the php code section.



Hope this helps,
Hugh

p.s. you could also use a $php_self action in a form to get the same
results.

Subject: [PHP] How to run a script leaving screen output of previous script


 Hi. I want to run a php script without leaving the php that calls that
 script.

 Let's say I have a script called mypage.php which displays html. There is
a
 link to link.php, which makes some database maintenance and has no output.
I
 want to be able to run link.php from mypage.php, but don't want to display
 anything new on screen.

 As it is, when link.php runs, it displays a blank screen. I guess I could
 insert a header to reload mypage.php, but I wonder if there is a way of
not
 leaving mypage.php at all. Is this posible?

 Thanks,

 -Alex
