Re: [PHP] Still executing afte die()?

[Leif K-Brooks]

But I only want it to insert if the page was all lowercase when they went to it. I understand it continuing after redirecting, but why after die()ing too? Putting the insert code into an else statment solved the problem, but it's ugly, and the question still remains... why does it do this?

either... I only added the die; when it still inserted with the redirect.

As you have already found out, the code _does_ continue to execute after the header() redirect.

Try this:

if (not_lowercase) {
insert_into_db();
header();
die();
}
