header('location: ./'); redirects to the current folder. Since 99% of LAMP
configuration loads index.php first, it redirects to index.php.
The header was from the previous code i guess.
I was redirecting from index.php to login.php if no session, and when the login
process was ok, header was redirecting to ./, aka index.php. Since now session
was set, user was logged in.
Now, since the loginprocess is inside the index, and login.php being only the
HTML to render the login form, there is no need for it anymore you're right.
