redirect to a thankyou page

[humair77]

I need to redirect to a thankyou page after a user submit form. I am new in PHP and trying to use header("Location: thankyou.html"); but it is going to thankyou page. Everything else seems to be working fine - Please help me out !!!


<?php
error_reporting(E_PARSE);
define("ADMIN_MAIL", "[e-mail]");
define("HOST_NAME", $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']);
define("PHP_SELF", $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
define('FORM_RECIPIENT', '[e-mail]');
$isHideForm = false;
if( $HTTP_POST_VARS["formmail_submit"] ){
header("Location: thankyou.html");
exit();
}
?>


<!-- Reminder: Add the link for the 'next page' (at the bottom) -->
<!-- Reminder: Change 'YourEmail' to Your real email -->

<?php

$ip = $_POST['ip'];
$httpref = $_POST['httpref'];
$httpagent = $_POST['httpagent'];
$customer_name = $_POST['customer_name'];
$customer_email = $_POST['customer_email'];
$customer_address = $_POST['customer_address'];
$customer_city = $_POST['customer_city'];
$customer_state = $_POST['customer_state'];
$customer_zip = $_POST['customer_zip'];
$customer_phone = $_POST['customer_phone'];
$customer_email = $_POST['customer_email'];

$todayis = date("l, F j, Y, g:i a") ;

$message = " $todayis [EST] \n
Name: $customer_name \n
Address: $customer_address \n
City: $customer_city \n
State: $customer_state \n
Zip: $customer_zip \n
Phone: $customer_phone \n
";

$from = "From: $customer_email\r\n";

mail("[e-mail]", $subject, $message, $from );
?>

Hi,
Are you getting an error? if so what is the error message?

[Markus]

Could you re-explain the problem please?

I don't understand this part of your thread:

..... and trying to use header("Location: thankyou.html"); but it is going to thankyou page .....

what is that last 'thankyou' page??

For the errors, try using

error_reporting(E_ALL);

ini_set("display_errors", true);

That will give you any error that occurs.

If you have header location as thankyou.html, it will go to the thankyou page, do you not think?

you might want to think of a redirect section that will open the link above if it is True if it fails then it does something....
it might look some thing like this
// redirect to success page
if ($success){
code here;
}
else{
some more code here;
}
