[PHP] Re: Redirect Question
Instead of outputting a header to redirect the browser would it be safer to use the meta-refresh tag? The reason I ask is because I heard that some versions of IE have trouble with the header There are probable even more browsers that can't handle the META tag... Which versions of IE is somebody claiming can't handle a Location: header? Cuz, like, even IE *CAN'T* be that broken, can it? -- Like Music? http://l-i-e.com/artists.htm -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php

With so many patches and 'upgrades' issued for IE I won't surprised if there is some combination which causes Location: header to fail. -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.com.hk Open Source Software Systems Integrators * Web Design Hosting * Internet Intranet Applications Development * /* All life evolves by the differential survival of replicating entities. -- Dawkins */ -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
