[PHP] netscape 4.x problem
Hi,
I'm having trouble getting a script working right in netscape 4.x and
was wondering if anybody knew a workaround, or fix.
If I have a script called sendheader.php with the following:
?
if (! isset($GLOBALS[sendheader])) {
header(Location: http://blah.com/sendheader.php;);
exit;
}
echo blah;
?
Load the script in netscape 4.x with
http://blah.com/sendheader.php?sendheader=0. Then load the script like
http://blah.com/sendheader.php and netscape returns Document contains
no data. It seems to break netscape 4.x if the Location header ==
current script name. Does anyone know how to get around this?

Re: [PHP] netscape 4.x problem
When you see document contains no data like that, the most likely cause
is an endless loop. So, for whatever, reason, it seems that your
conditional statement is returning true every time.
Remove the Location header for now, and replace that line with:
echo h1Redirecting to http://blah.com/sendheader.php/h1;
exit;
This will allow you to see whether you are returning that Location
header to the client under the different cases. My guess is that you
will see this on the screen even when you don't expect to. That should
give you a starting point for debugging.

Dude, what IS the point of this?
If the $sendheader variable isn't set, you're sending the person back to
the same page w/o setting the sentheader variable first... So, you've
created an infinite loop. Do you mean to be doing:
header('Location: http://blah.com/sendheader.php?sendheader=y');
Some other tips:
When array keys are strings, put them in quotes ($GLOBALS['sendheader'])
Use single quotes rather than double quotes when dealing with strings that
are not being evaluated for variables in them.
