adding a redirect code to php script

Re: adding a redirect code to php script

If i understand well:

Solution 1: combine a custom made Thankyou page with the script: Create a page as you like it. In your case you must save it as "order_inframe", Make it the same dimensions of your i-frame.

Now, the script must become as follows:

<?PHP
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
$mailto="info@pantryhamper.ie";
$mailsubj="Online Order/Enquiry Contact Form";
$mailhead="from:$email\n";
reset($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody="Values submitted from website form:\n";
while(list($key,$val)=each($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
$mailbody.="$key:$val\n";
}
mail($mailto,$mailsubj,$mailbody,$mailhead);
?>

Copy this code. Go back in your page (order_inframe) and click on View, Pahe HTML
Click on" Inside Body" and paste the code in there. Also, go in Page Properties, and where you see "File extension" set it to php. Save the page and publish it. It will take the place of your script (order_inframe.php) but it will have the layout that you have created.

Have a look at http://www.vodahost.com/vodatalk/for...sing-form.html

It os the same method, only the script is different, as the one in this link will also upload files if necessary.

Solution 2: redirect the script after submission to a thankyou page:

Create a "thankyou_page" as you like it. Save it as "thankyou_page" and publish it normally.
Modify your script as follows:

<?PHP
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
$mailto="info@pantryhamper.ie";
$mailsubj="Online Order/Enquiry Contact Form";
$mailhead="from:$email\n";
reset($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody="Values submitted from website form:\n";
while(list($key,$val)=each($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
$mailbody.="$key:$val\n";
}
mail($mailto,$mailsubj,$mailbody,$mailhead);
header("Location: thankyou_page.html");
?>

replace your script with this one and you are done.

Re: adding a redirect code to php script

Hi Naval design,

I followed solution 2 as you have laid out above but keep getting the following error message when submitting......

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output started at /home2/pfjywgyr/public_html/order_inframe.php:2) in /home2/pfjywgyr/public_html/order_inframe.php on line 14

The following is the php script used.....

<?PHP
$email=$HTTP_POST_VARS[email];
$mailto="info@pantryhamper.ie";
$mailsubj="Online Order/Enquiry Contact Form";
$mailhead="from:$email\n";
reset($HTTP_POST_VARS);
$mailbody="Values submitted from website form:\n";
while(list($key,$val)=each($HTTP_POST_VARS))
{
$mailbody.="$key:$val\n";
}
mail($mailto,$mailsubj,$mailbody,$mailhead);
header("Location:http://www.pantryhamper.ie/thank_you.html");
?>

Did I go wrong in the header? should I have typed the full url or what you had typed out?

There was a space between the : and thankyou_page of which I removed.....should I have done this?

Sorry for taking more of your time on this but will you write out php script exactly as I should use for the page (now published) titled thank_you for http://www.pantryhamper.ie

Hi Naveldesign,

Scratch my last post as all working fine.

The space was the problem and caused the error.

Thanks for all your help and talk to you soon.

Best Regards,
Liam.
