PHP - Open Url Without Redirecting

Is there anyway to do this:

my form is posting to self, then checking login creds. if they are incorrect it spits out "invaild bla bla" but if they are correct send them to a different page?

here is the short version of what I have.

if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

//check inputs vs db

if ($check) {
header("Location: http://". $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME']."/include/process_renew.php");
} else { 
echo "<font color='red'>Username or Password did not match.</font> <br /><br />";
   }
}


}

I tested it using echo first and it worked fine then replaced the echo with header and now when I submit it just refreshes the page.

is this not possible?

i am trying to redirect a user to a certain page, if the credentials are not right.  if there is no session user, they are kicked out.  if it is set, but to the guest account, they go to the login page with a special error message.  here is my code for it:

Code: [Select]
if (!isset($_SESSION['user']))
{
  header('Location: portal.php?logintocontinue');
exit;
}
elseif($_SESSION['user'] == "guest") {
header('Location: portal.php?invalidLogin');
exit;
}
else {

}
after attempting to run the page, with session user = guest, i get this error message: The page isn't redirecting properly.

does it have to do with headers already being sent?

For some reason the below is always redirecting to ./index.php?usercp=ideas&message=error

I'm assuming it's something to do with mysql_affected_rows.


<?php
session_start();
require_once 'db_select.php';
require_once 'func.php';
$donor_id=$_POST['donor_id'];
$donor_id=sanitize($donor_id);
$username=$_POST['username'];
$username=sanitize($username);
$name=$_POST['name'];
$name=sanitize($name);
$amount=$_POST['amount'];
$amount=sanitize($amount);
$idea_message=$_POST['idea_message'];
$idea_message=sanitize($idea_message);
$_SESSION['idea_message']=$idea_message;
$subject=$_POST['subject'];
$subject=sanitize($subject);
$_SESSION['subject']=$subject;
$confirm_agreement=$_POST['confirm_agreement'];
$confirm_agreement=sanitize($confirm_agreement);


if($subject==""){
$error0=1;
}
else{
$error0=0;
}

if($idea_message==""){
$error1=1;
}
else{
$error1=0;
}

if(($confirm_agreement!="no" && $confirm_agreement!="yes") || $confirm_agreement=="no"){
$error2=1;
}
else{
$error2=0;
}

$error="".$error0."".$error1."".$error2."";

if($error!="000"){
header("Location: ./index.php?usercp=ideas&error=".$error."");
}
else{
$sql="INSERT INTO $tbl_name5 (message_number, donor_id, username, name, amoutn, message) VALUES ('$message_number', '$donor_id', '$username', '$name', '$amount', '$message')";
mysql_query($sql);
if(mysql_affected_rows()==1){
header("Location: ./index.php?usercp=ideas&message=submitted");
unset($_SESSION['idea_message']);
unset($_SESSION['subject']);
}
else{
header("Location: ./index.php?usercp=ideas&message=error");
}
}
?>

Hello,

I'm having some problems with a redirect situation.  I start on a page called Create Assignment.  From this page I pass (using GET) the variable assignment_id to a page called Add_questions (the user can add questions to this specific assignment).  When a user wants to add a question, they hit a link which brings them to my Database Update script.  All works great so far!  After the update, however, I want to redirect them BACK to the Add_questions page while keeping the same Assignment number.  I've tried using:
header('Location: list_assignment_question.php?assignment_id'); but I get this error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/algebra_book/main_scripts/db_insert_assignment_question.php:6) in /Applications/MAMP/htdocs/algebra_book/main_scripts/db_insert_assignment_question.php on line 12

Any thoughts?  I'd be more than happy to provide more code as needed.

Hi again,
           I have created a comment script, which is working pretty good. Now the problem I am facing is for instance this is one page www.mysite.com/blah1 and this is another www.mysite.com/blah2. They both have options to comment, now what is happening some one posts on blah2, it redirects to blah 1 and some one posts on blah 1 redirects to itself  what I want to achieve is when a person posts a comment on any given page PHP redirects the person to the page where they posted from (itself) not the other one. Thanks any help or guidance would be appreciated. I hope was clear enough!

why won't this header redirect?  it doesn't seem to like the mysql_close.  can i update the database before redirecting to another page?  is it possible?

Code: [Select]
<?php
session_start();
$name = "uname";
$lastLogin = date('l jS \of F Y h:i:s A');
require_once('../Connections/uploader.php');
mysql_select_db($database_uploader, $uploader); 
$query = "SELECT * FROM members WHERE uname='"
. $name . "'";
$result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error());
// connect to database here
MYSQL_CONNECT($server, $user, $password) or die ("Server unreachable");
MYSQL_SELECT_DB($database) or die ("Database non existent");
if (mysql_num_rows($result) > 0) { 
$row = mysql_fetch_array($result) or die(mysql_error());
mysql_query("UPDATE members
SET lastLogin='$lastLogin'
WHERE uname='$name'")
// ERROR MESSAGE??
or die(mysql_error());  
mysql_close($con);
header('Location: redirect.php');
}

?>
thanks in advance.

Hello everyone, i have a "bug" i'd like you to see and help me solve if possible.

Let me tell you about when the redirection starts.
In my script, it checks if the two words you've entered in two boxes, if they match with the two words on the mysql database then send them to /php/userpanel.php
if they doesnt send them to /php/loginerror1.php

My problem is, that when you've been redirected to ex. /php/loginerror1.php
then when you click to a new page in the menu, it sends you to /php/loginerror1.php/index.php

/php/loginerror1.php also dont have any design, i think it doesnt load the .css properly.

Anyone had this, or anyone knows how to fix it?

Thanks Niixie

Is it okay to redirect a user to another page - which displays an outcome message - after a form is submitted?

Hi guys

Another basic question.

I have this dynamic link when I click it, it redirect to this link below,
Code: [Select]
http://samplesite.com/adventure/\'google.com\'

How do I remove the main site --> samplesite.com redirect only to google.com?

I also tried to remove the two slashes using stripslashes() but it won't.

By the way here is the stripslashes() codes,
Code: [Select]
while ($db_field = mysql_fetch_assoc($result)) {
$title = $db_field['title'];

print "Title: " . stripslashes($title) . "<br>";
print "Description: " . $db_field['description'] . "<br>";
print "Version: " . $db_field['version'] . "<br>";
print "Started: " . $db_field['started'] . "<br>";
print "Finished: " . $db_field['finished'] . "<br><br>";
}


Thanks in advanced.

Hello I have moved my web site from local machine to a hosted server (Ionos) I seem to be having issues with any code that has redirects  or checks if the user is logged in, I just get a blank page, any idea's ? works fine on my local Xamp version two examples below (if I remove the code the page runs)

 

// We need to use sessions, so you should always start sessions using the below code.
session_start();
// If the user is not logged in redirect to the login page...
if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])) {
        header('Location: login.php');
        exit();
        }
?>

 

 

 

<?php  
       // database connect
        include('../db_connect.php');

        // We need to use sessions, so you should always start sessions using the below code.
        session_start();
        // If the user is not logged in redirect to the login page...
        if (!isset($_SESSION['loggedin'])) {
	    header('Location: login.php');
	    exit();
        }
        // if submit button selected  run code
        if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
                $_SESSION['district'] = $_POST['district'];
                header('Location: add_d_choice.php');
            }

?>


This file is included by all other pages so that as a User navigates my site I am constantly updating the "last_activity" field in the database.

If I change the condition from...
Code: [Select]
if ($success === FALSE){
...to...
Code: [Select]
if ($success !== FALSE){
...then I get this error?!


(Where I am at, the Internet is on and offline.  Could that be a factor??)

I am REALLY CONFUSED what is happening here...

I keep getting a 'The page isn't redirecting properly error on Firefox.  Anyone have an idea?  I think it has something to do with the header() function, but I can't seem to pinpoint it.  Code for the two files are below.

How can I write a 404 file to redirected any 'not found' page with structure of example.com/something/more/final.html to example.com/search?q=something+more+final 

Thanks 

I have a program that is loaded into an iframe, more specifically the fancybox modal window app. It is the one here http://www.phpfreaks.com/forums/index.php?topic=332297.0 which dragonSA and others so graciously helped me with.

On completion of the program (no errors), I want it to redirect the entire page to a new one. (the user successfully logs in)

The problem it seems is that my header('URL'); redirects to the page, but within the iframe. I want the top frame to redirect, and obviously closing the modal window.

I did some research and it seems that frames are client-side while PHP is getting processed server-side so it's unable to target another frame. I believe that this makes it out of PHP's scope to do this, but I am not sure.

I did some more research and a lot of people on the web are using javascript to do this, but none of the examples showed how it could be implemented in something like mine (after a true if statement inside the php script).


Code: [Select]
// the following code is inside a <?php ?> statement

if (count($aError) == 0) {


  header( 'Location: http://www.site.com/welcome.html' ) ;
}
