Header( "Location: http://www.new-url.com" );

[thomasg]

Hi,

I am moving some scripts from a UNIX box to a Windows box.

A data entry form calls a PHP script the updates the records from the form. After the script completes, The script redirects to anothe page. No headers have been sent, the script just does the database update.

This works on the UNIX account:
Header( "Location: http://www.new-url.com" );

It does not work on the IIS box.

The records are updated correctly in the database.

Help?

Are you getting any messages in your error log? Try turning error reporting on:
[PHP]
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', True);
// Rest of the PHP code
[/PHP]
It may be a problem with the capital H you used in header(). I don't know if case sensitivity is enabled in your version of PHP.

Hi,

I turned on the error reporting and there no errors. I even put in a error and it was displayed.

// return to the home page
header("location: menu_edit_form.php");

This does not work, it just remains on the php page.
