PHP - Logout Not Re-directing...

I am having problems understanding the reason for why the user has to click logout twice, here's the bulk of the code:

<?php
ini_set('display_errors',0);

require_once 'header.html';

require_once 'db.functions.php';

require_once 'config.php';

$database = dbConnect($host, $username, $password, $database); // should output 1 or nothing at all!

if($database == true)
{

// now connected?

// carry on with logic of outputting the blog contents:

$result = entries("SELECT * FROM entries");

printf("<table>");

while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result))

{

printf("

<tr>

<td>%s</td>

<td>%s</td>

</tr>

<tr>

<td colspan=\"2\">%s</td>

</tr>

", $row[2], $row[4], $row[3]);

}

printf("</table>");

printf("\n\n");

session_name("jeremysmith_blog");

session_start();

if(array_key_exists('login',$_SESSION))

{

if($_SESSION['login'] == 1) // change this to correspond with session on the login.php script

{

printf("<p>Welcome %s</p>

<p>To logout, click <a href=\"index.php?action=logout\">here</a></p>

",$_SESSION['username']);

}

} else {

printf("<p>You are not logged in, please click <a href=\"login.php\">here</a> to login.</p>");

}

} else {

printf("\n<p id=\"error\">Could not connect to database, please try again later.</p>");

}

// init the logout script?
if(array_key_exists('action',$_GET))
{

if($_GET['action'] == 'logout')

{

// log user out of the system:

unset($_SESSION['login']);

unset($_SESSION['username']);

session_destroy();

}
}


printf("\n"); // just for output format!
require_once 'footer.html';

Why does the user have to click logout twice, have I missed anything?

Any helps appreciated thanks.

Any Idea why this isn't being re-directed to "track_order.php"?

Sorry if it has been mentioned previously and can I be directed to the correct information.
            

Hello I am having another minor issue where I am unable to spot where I am going wrong.

The code for my logout button should redirect the user to index.php however I seem to be having an issue with the url. This is on my test server and I am using
Code: [Select]
$url = BASE_URL . 'index.php'; // Define the URL.however the button seems to be taking me to:
Quote

http://localhost/ICU/localhost/ICUindex.php


An I am not quite sure why, the base_url should be localhost/ICU or localhost but the url given out is localhost/ICU/Localhost/ICUindex.php.
why is it repeating itself?
So where am I going wrong, is it in my understanding of the BASE_URL or something else?

As always thank you in advance for any help.

Hi all

Just to let you know where I am up to currently.
I have created a database for articles I want to display a a blog. I have created a blog.php page and am echoing out parts of the database. I have then created some dynamic links to display the full article on another page i've named newsarticle.php.

My whole site uses includes. i.e. www.maplewebdesign.co.uk/index.php?page=home etc.
I've created a sum domain - blog.maplewebdesign.co.uk but I want to re-direct this to my blog page which is www.maplewebdesign.co.uk/index.php?page=blog

I hope this makes sense.
I would really appriciate some help.

My website is www.maplewebdesign.co.uk by the way.
The blog page isn't linked yet, but the link is, www.maplewebdesign.co.uk/index.php?page=blog

Thanks
Adi

Hi!

I'm attempting to do this and feel that I'm fairly close. Would you take a look and throw me any bones?

PHP Code:

Code: [Select]
<?php
if (isset($_POST['ppassword']) && (stristr($string,'') === TRUE)) { 
switch($_POST['ppassword']) {
case "Google":
header("Location: http://www.google.com");
exit();

case "Yahoo":
header("Location: http://www.yahoo.com"); 
exit();

case "Bing":
header("Location: http://www.bing.com");
exit();
}
}
?>
The Form:
Code: [Select]
<form name="portal" id="portal" method="post" action="">
    <input name="ppassword" type="text" id="ppassword" maxlength="25" onfocus="this.select()" onblur="this.value=!this.value?'company name':this.value;" value="company name" onclick="this.value=''" />
    <input name="login" type="submit" id="login" value="Continue" />
</form>

I appreciate any of your help. I feel close and this part Code: [Select]
(stristr($string,'') feels like the missing piece of the puzzle.
