Yes, via GET method.
<?php header("Location: index2.php?foo=1&bar=2"); ?>
Parameters foo and bar are now available to index2.php. Oh and I
should
mention also, that the example I gave you works in most browsers, but
the
standard says you need to always always include the entire address, and
not
just the relative filename. In other words: always use
<?php header("Location:
http://www.your-domain.com/path/to/index2.php"); ?>
and never ever use
<?php header("Location: index2.php"); ?> without the entire url.
I should also mention that header data must be sent before any output.
You
can't print or echo anything before you've sent headers.
Copy & Follow-up to: comp.lang.php
what i need is the ability to write something to the user and then
redirect him or her to index2 or index
