PHP redirect url

[djl35319]

Is there a way to launch a new web page without using the header command?
When I try to use header I get the following:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by

[so_is_this]

"launch" from PHP? No. However, if you use outbound buffering then you can flush the buffer and go ahead to perform the redirect as normal. See:
ob_start();

Or just make sure your logic is such that nothing is output to the browser before your call to header(). (This includes having no newlines and/or spaces before the opening <?php tag.)

is this what you were looking for?

<script>
location.href="new page.php";
</script>

[so_is_this]

Yes, I editted my post to clarify that I was talking about from PHP. That code is JavaScript and, as such, may not work -- in the case that JavaScript may not be enabled or even available.

then you have to have it before the header is sent or look into using an output buffer like so_is_this mentioned

using the Javascript worked perfectly. Thanks to all for the assistance on this.

a lot of people have java script disabled so you should either provide a server side alternative or just use server side the code below WILL work

the ob_start(); and ob_end_flush(); stop the Warning: Cannot modify header information from appearing i also use this when i'm working with cookies

<?php
ob_start();

//your code
header("Location: http://www.url");
ob_end_flush();
?>
