Redirect to another page using Header

Hello everyone,

I have a problem with redirecting the user to a different page using the function Header.I have a form where the user complete his/her details in order to register in the website(register.php).The page register.php checks to see if specific fields has been filled in and if the data type that the user entered is the correct ones.If the details are correct then a message appers welcoming the user and then redirecting to another page to the basket.php in order to buy the items.
In order to redirect to another page I used the “header”

[code=php]header (“Location: http://”. $_SERVER[‘HTTP_HOST’] . dirname($_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]) . “/basket.php”);[/code]

The problem is that when i use the header is not being redirected.
Here is the code for all the page:

[code=html]
<table width=”717″ border=”0″ align=”center” cellspacing=”4″>
<tr>
<td><span class=”generalfont”><img src=”registeronline.jpg” width=”185″ height=”19″ /><br><br>
Once you have registered, you will be able to log in to your account and buy online. We will also keep you up to date with our new ranges and special offers. <br>
<br>
Simply fill in the form or click autofill on your google toolbar. </span></td>
</tr>
</table>
<br>
<form name=”register” method=”post” action=”<? echo $_SERVER[‘PHP_SELF’]; ?>”>

<table width=”406″ border=”0″ align=”center”>
