I've to create a registration form that redirect to a page after registration

American_horizo

Hi
i've a page called registration.html that contains a form. I want that when the user click the "send" button, he will be redirected to the page called confirmRegistration.html
... But how to exlude the possibility of open this page writing manually the address into the address bar? (for exemple www.mysite.com/confirmRegistration.html)

What approach you would use? Is it the case of use the SESSIONS?

Your confirmRegistration page needs to be a .php, not a .html (unless you are making changes in htaccess) and then at the top of the page you would put something like this (difficult without your code):

<?php
if (!isset($_POST)) {
header('location: name_of_page_to_redirect_to');
} else {
.
.
.
// The form processing code here
.
.
} ?>

uhmm,
if !isset($_POST) it should return to the registration page with the form

ELSE he should show the confirmation that is something like this.
<div>You're successfully registred. Please Check your mail</div>

In the php code can i put this html code after the ELSE? Note that i won't generate it trought php echo, but treat it such a normal html code

Actually i've use your method, with the difference that the exact syntax is if (empty($POST)), because the $POST is a superglobal variable that is always set

But now i don't know how to proceed.

My php page is that:


<?php

if (empty($_POST))
{
header('location: loginPage.php');
} 

?> 

<div id="logo"> <img src=my_logo_small_grey.png  height="60"/> </div>
<div id="msgConfirm">Thank You!</div>


</body>

But how to launch it passing a POST parameter? What method should i adopt? Actually i've tryied with AJAX ajaxReq.open("POST", url, true), but it don't open the page

OK, I should have been a bit more specific regarding the isset (better to use than empty on its own) and I would normally have a hidden input field in my forms to check that the form has been posted, so something like

if (!isset($_POST['confirm_login'])) {
...
}

I am not 100% sure I understand your question but I think you are trying to pass a parameter back to the login page if the person is redirected (maybe an error code), so:

if (!isset($_POST['confirm_login'])) {
  header('location: loginPage.php?error=1');
}

I could help better if you could tell me exactly what information you want to send back to the login page on the header re-direct.

yes this could be a solution
