Hi,

when i use header("Location: blah.php") it doesn't keep the post variables?


How can i actually redirect keeping the post variables?

Thanks

If I'm interpreting the comment on this page (http://us4.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php) correctly, this might be what you need:

header("HTTP/1.0 307 Temporary redirect");
header("Location: http://www.mydomain.com/otherlocation");

But I'm mostly guessing. Good luck.

Hi, ok im not sure???

This is what i am doing?


It does the checking of the form and THEN sends it to a page that enteres it into a db.


<?PHP
session_start();

require('php/validation.php');

include('php/db_config.php');

//split up the reg_code
$reg_code = explode(",", $reg_code);

$Type = $_GET[type];

// check to see if it should be validating or not
if (empty($_GET[val])){
$validate = false;
} else {
$validate = true;
}

if(isset($_POST) && is_array($_POST) && ($validate == true)) {

//validation via validation page
$error_msg = validate();

if($error_msg == ""){

//send to enter the data
header("Location: php/reg.php");

} else {

$errors = true;
}
}
?>

My idea is to change the header part to this:

//send to enter the data
header("HTTP/1.0 307 Temporary redirect"); // So POST data sent (maybe???)
header("Location: php/reg.php");

Yes, that has worked but unfortunatly it brings up a message asking if you want to be redirected the post data.

So im gonna just put the code into the page i think

Thanks though nogdog
