using this IF to forward to page?

[paul814]

How can I open a page based on this IF:

Code:

if ($selected_radi o = = '0') {
WHAT NEEDS TO GO HERE IF I WANT TO OPEN http://localhost/index3.php
}

thanks

A call to header() must be made before ANY output to the browser. This
includes your <htmltag, any white space - anything.

As soon as you send even one byte - no matter what's in that byte - to
the browser, the web server sends the headers. It is now too late for
your header() call.

You can keep the <htmltag - but it must be *after* your PHP code which
calls header().

OK I understand....s o I can have my php code first and it does not
have to be wrapped in HTML tags, OK I thought it had to be wrapped in
html tags.

What if I wanted to make the IF multi-dimensional, is it done the
same way? say I want to say something like...
if($selected_ra dio == 0) AND if a specific option group item is
selected, then goto this specific page...
$selected_radio is for radio buttons, what is the syntax for option
group box lists, like a list where you can drop down and pick your
State from a list of 50.

OK well the page write-editorial.php opens now but it opens if radio
selected = 0 or 1. it should only do it if == 0. Am I missing
something?

<?PHP
if($selected_ra dio == 0){
header('Locatio n: http://localhost/production/write-editorial.php') ;
exit;
}
?>

do I first have to tell it what radio button is called, ex:
radReadWrite ?

Well, how do you get this magic '$selected_radi o' variable? (Hint:
register_global s is probably off, so $selected_radio is not set. Loose
comparison of 0 against NULL equals true)

OK I see what I was doing wrong again, I was not assigning a value to
the variable first.
........
Right now I have a simple IF to take me to a page based on selected
radio button:

Code:
<?PHP
$selected_radio = $_POST['radReadWrite'];
if($selected_ra dio == 0){
header('Locatio n:
http://localhost/production/write-editorial.php') ;
exit;
}
?>

How would I make this multi-dimensional, meaning I also have a option
group pull down, like a pull down you would see on the web for
selecting your State.

I want to do something like this:
If $selected_radio ==0 and lstdepartment == lsteditorial then goto
page write-editorial.php

if($selected_ra dio == 0 && $lstdepartment= ='lsteditorial' ){
header(......../write-editorial.php);
exit;
}

or if $selected_radio ==0 and lstdepartment == lstpress then goto page
write-press.php

if($selected_ra dio == 0 && $lstdepartment= ='lstpress'){
header(......../write-press.php);
exit;
}

something like that?
How do I get the value of my lstbox? like I did for radio...
$selected_radio = $_POST['radReadWrite'];

Indeed, just use the right name from your form ($_POST['lstdepartment'])
