Also, not sure about your situation, I'm not sure your resource id can 
always be counted on to be == 1. The sort of syntax I would suggest:

if (!$conn=mysql_connect(SERVER,USER,PWD)) {
   header("Location: http://.....notlogged.htm";);
} else {
   header("Location: http://.....logged.htm";);
}

obviously, somewhere on your "notlogged" page you would display the 
error messages.
