hi,

I have a script that does this :

[code=php]
if ($down==1){
$query4 = “UPDATE mainMenu SET positie=’$positionDOWN’ WHERE positie=$positionSTORE”;
$result4 = mysql_query($query4);
$down = 0;
}
[/code]

but at the and of the if statement it should refresh the page and I tried to do it with something like this:

[code=php]
<!–this one kept refreshing over and over again–>
echo “<script type=’text/javascript’>window.location.reload(true)</script>”;

<!–and i tried a return function and that only made my page gray–>
return ‘menu.php’;
[/code]

I searched the internet for an answer and found many of the same questions but not with the right answer. What can I do??

Thanks in advance

@LiLcRaZyFuZzYAug 19.2005 — if you have no output sent yet you can use the [code=php]header("Location: http://www.url.com/page.php");[/code]

and btw comments in php are in the following formats:
[code=php]//this line would be commented[/code]
or
[code=php]
#this line as well
[/code]
or you can use multiline comments
[code=php]
/* blahkakhdjash
jasdhsjkf
sjhdf*/[/code]

@aznchong91Aug 19.2005 — Yeah, you should use header(). Don't forget though that the header should come before ANY html or anything else except for PHP.

@zebdaagauthorAug 19.2005 — Hi it works but i get an error:

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home/okparkin/public_html/CMS/restricted/menu.php:12) in /home/okparkin/public_html/CMS/restricted/menu.php on line 50

does this has to do something with the last post??

header(blah);

?>

<html>

<head>...

@aznchong91Aug 20.2005 — In fact, you could just add the php and forget about any html, css,javascript,etc. programming. You could also do this though:

<?php

//do some coding

header();

//because php can be added before the headers.
