You can always use header() ...just don't print anything on the page before the redirect. Why would you want to display anything on the page when it's redirecting?

Yes, something else is needed. I'm detecting browsers in an PHP page, then need to redirect to another page if browser=X ... I get the same message as 'dlk' (i.e. Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at..."

Aha ... the only thing needed is more PHP experience!
***IMPORTANT***
Not only must 'you call this function before ANY output', but it MUST go at the very top of the (in my case) HTML file. Before, even, the tag.
Do that and it works as advertised.

CORRECTION: Should read "Before, even, the "HTML" tag.

Here is what I found that works as a comment on the PHP manual under headers_sent() function:
\r\n";
}
}

\"You can always use header() ...just don\'t print anything on the page before the redirect. Why would you want to display anything on the page when it\'s redirecting?\"
You need to use output buffering. In effect, what you are doing when you run the redirect through php, you are sending information after the header info has already been sent to the server creating the error message. Regardless of where the script is on the page, you should use \"ob_start()\" at the beggining of redirect, and \"ob_end_flush()\" at the end

Why would you want to display anything on the page when it\'s redirecting?\" You wouldnt but what if someone was doing a hit counter. To count how many times that url was being visited?

I'm trying to run this code & the first statement is not working. PLZ check it for me.
if(($_POST["use"] == "$user") && ($_POST["passwd"] == "$passwd"))
{
$url = '/ediover.php';
header("Location:$url");
}
It doesn't redirect the page. It gives me thi warning :-Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at C:\apache2triad\htdocs\itd\login.php:14) in C:\apache2triad\htdocs\itd\login.php on line 35

i want to check the user name and password before i redirect .. what shall i do ...
Comment by Harish on 2007-03-07
you must call this function before you output anything, otherwise the server automatically generates a header for you and you'll receive a "Cannot modify header information - headers already sent" error message. You can't even output a space.
THATS TRUE.. EXACTLY ITS ONE FROM THOUSAND..
