PHP Code


// the $error and $success parameters get passed via $_REQUEST/$_GET... you can parse them to tell your users the reason for redirection

 function redirect($page, $error = "", $success = "")

                {

                        $error_str = "";

                        $success_str = "";

                        $extra = "";

                        if(!empty($error))

                                $error_str = "?e=" . urlencode($error);

                        if(!empty($success))

                                $success_str = "?s=" . urlencode($success);

                        if(@$_REQUEST['force'] == 1)

                                $extra = "&force=1";



                        $relocate = "Location: " . $page . $error_str . $success_str;

                        $relocate = str_replace("&?e","&e", $relocate);

                        $relocate = str_replace("&?s","&s", $relocate);

                        header($relocate . $extra);

                        return;

                }



// In order to call this function, do something like this



<?php

          redirect("index.php","This is an error message","This is a success message, you dont need both or even one for that matter");

          return; // make sure you have this in case the redirect is within an if() statement or else the rest of your code below the redirect will execute!



?>
