PHP Redirect to another page after form submit

Question

I have read all your posts about inserting headers into a php form file in order to redirect the user to another URL AFTER the form is submitted - but I can t figure out how to do it   Below is my code   Can you show me where to put the header redirect so that the information gets e-mailed and then the user goes to another html page        lt  php     if isset   POST  email               EDIT THE 2 LINES BELOW AS REQUIRED      email to    pecraig moneymovers com        email subject    Mailing List Form        function died  error               your error code can go here         echo  We are very sorry  but there were error s  found with the form you        submitted             echo  These errors appear below  lt br   gt  lt br   gt            echo  error   lt br   gt  lt br   gt            echo  Please go back and fix these errors  lt br   gt  lt br   gt            die                 validation expected data exists     if  isset   POST  first name                isset   POST  last name                isset   POST  email                isset   POST  telephone                isset   POST  company                isset   POST  street                isset   POST  city                isset   POST  state                isset   POST  zip               died  We are sorry  but there appears to be a problem with the form you      submitted                       first name     POST  first name       required      last name     POST  last name       required      email from     POST  email       required      telephone     POST  telephone       required      company     POST  company       required      street     POST  street       required      city     POST  city       required      state     POST  state       required      zip     POST  zip       required       error message            string exp       A-Za-z0-9   -         if  preg match  string exp  first name          error message     The First Name you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  last name          error message     The Last Name you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt               email exp       A-Za-z0-9   -    A-Za-z0-9 -     A-Za-z  2 4        if  preg match  email exp  email from          error message     The Email Address you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  company          error message     The Company you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  street          error message     The Street you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  city          error message     The City you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  state          error message     The State you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if  preg match  string exp  zip          error message     The Zip Code you entered does not appear to be valid  lt br   gt          if strlen  error message   gt  0        died  error message            email message    Response from Mailing List Page   Please enter in database  n n        function clean string  string           bad   array  content-type   bcc    to    cc    href          return str replace  bad     string               email message     First Name    clean string  first name    n        email message     Last Name    clean string  last name    n        email message     Email    clean string  email from    n        email message     Telephone    clean string  telephone    n        email message     Company    clean string  company    n        email message     Street    clean string  street    n        email message     City    clean string  city    n        email message     State    clean string  state    n        email message     Zip    clean string  zip    n        create email headers  headers    From     email from   r n    Reply-To     email from   r n     X-Mailer  PHP     phpversion     mail  email to   email subject   email message   headers      gt    lt  -- include your own success html here -- gt   Thanks for subscribing to our mailing list     lt  php     gt

First give your input type submit a name, like this name='submitform'.

and then put this in your php file

if (isset($_POST['submitform']))
    {   
    ?>
<script type="text/javascript">
window.location = "http://www.google.com/";
</script>      
    <?php
    }

Don't forget to change the url to yours.

If your redirect is in PHP  nothing should be echoed to the user before the redirect instruction   See header for more info      Remember that header   must be called before any actual output is sent  either by normal HTML tags  blank lines in a file  or from PHP   Otherwise  you can use Javascript to redirect the user   Just use  window location    http   www google com

You can include your header function wherever you like  as long as NO html and or text has been printed to standard out   For more information and usage  http   php net manual en function header php    I see in your code that you echo   out some text in case of error or success  Don t do that  you can t  You can only redirect OR show the text  If you show the text you ll then fail to redirect

Once had this issue  thought it reasonable to share how I resolved it   I think the way to do that in php is to use the header function as   header   Location  exampleFile php      You could just enclose that header file in an if statement so that it redirects only when a certain condition is met  as in   if  isset   POST  submit        header  Location  exampleFile php         Hope that helps

Whenever you want to redirect  send the headers   header  Location  http   www example com       Remember you cant send data to the client before that  though

Right after  mail  email to   email subject   email message   headers    header  Location  nextpage php      Note that you will never see  Thanks for subscribing to our mailing list   That should be on the next page  if you echo any text you will get an error because the headers would have been already created  if you want to redirect never return any text  not even a space
