Hello to all - just joined this list to see if I can enhance my pretty slim knowledge
of PHP.
I have a little script I cobbled together than I modified to use as a guestbook for a
client's site. I am trying to get the script to call a "success" page if the mail in
fact gets
sent. I plan to also add a "failure" page if the validation routine (haven't added
this yet)
doesn't work.
I have been experimenting with the statement
header("Location:thanks.shtml");
But no matter where I place it in the PHP file, I get the error message that says
"Headers already sent..."
To wit:
<?
include ("/file with passwords and user id's in it");
//a bunch of stuff to pull email recipient's address and id out of MySQL db
//works fine
//$enjoy, $visit, $test vars pulled from form that follows the script, no probs there
$recipient=$to_name;
$message=$enjoy.$visit.$text;
$params['sendmail_path'] = '/usr/sbin/sendmail';
if ($submit){
mail($recipient, $subject, $message, "From:\"$from_name\"<$from_email>\r\n" .
"Reply-to: $from_email\r\n" .
"X-Mailer: PHP/" . phpversion());
}
?>
So where in the world does the
header("Location:thanks.shtml");
statement go? And if I do an if/else thing on submit, where does the other statement
go?
header("Location:error.shtml");
TIA for any advice you can offer. I must be really missing the point here.
Cheers --- Phil Matt
