how to fix this error?

[raven80]

<?php
$URL=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']."/".rand(100,999);
header("Location: $URL");
?>


I use this script to redirect to itself but I want the URL change, e.g: I run http://www.myweb.com/redirect.php and it will redirect to http://www.myweb.com/redirect.php/xxx , xxx is a number from 100-999. But this alert appear: "Redirection limit for this URL is exceeded. Unable to load the requested page. This may be caused by cookie that are blocked."

Help me to fix it. Thanks

It's not redirecting to itself, it's trying to redirect to a file or directory named "xxx" (whatever the number is) under a directory called "redirect.php". Is that really what you intended?

[raven80]

I want this file redirect.php open it self but URL appear followed with /xxx ( like use press any key at this page http://24h.com.vn/blank.php)
I want this script can do the same as this page. Thanks

That redirection is made with javascript
you could use the url escroto.php/659 if you specify in php.in (i guess) the slash as a variable something, I don't know how to explain, someone else should be able to do it

and I think that if it is redirecting to itself it will redirect again and again

[raven80]

you mean I specify the slash as a variable in php.ini
I want it redirect once and stop.

[Huevoos]

not as a variable, I don't know a lot of this, but I think you can specify it to act like the ? in the url like here showthread.php?t=90949 the leading symbol to pass variables

[raven80]

yes, I'll try.
Any other way to make it ?

[chazzy]

usually if you see something like:
showtopic.php?1235908
or
showtopic.php/124109581

those are usually done via mod_rewrite in apache (and similar url rewriters in IIS/WebLogic/Websphere/etc) so if that's the idea you were trying to mimic, you're approaching it from the wrong way, as its a server configuration issue

[raven80]

so I must config in apache, right??

Have a look at these, they should help:
