PHP Header-Location not working?

JamesU2005 · 31 Jan 2008 at 14:24

Trying to do a Header location redirect but all I get is "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

Basically I run an upload script that inserts everything into a MySQL database then if the query was successful it does a Header location to a new page.

I have replaced the Header, with an echo to see if it works and the echo works fine.

Code:

header("Location:complete.php");

It's on an IIS Server, could it be because the upload is using up all the MAX Upload File/Post size even though everything still Inserts fine despite the error message.

Any ideas?

EDIT: In FireFox it works fine but IE is being odd as ever.

Turn on full error reporting and E_NOTICE level errors, all should be revealed then.

I put

Code:

error_reporting(E_ALL);

into the PHP file, tryed the upload script again and still just displays "Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage".

Put a space after the colon, and also use

Code:

display_errors(true);

at the top.

Problem solved!

Had to turn off Friendly HTTP error message in IE plus added

Code:

error_reporting(E_ALL);

to the top of the code.

It complained about a Session Start, which I quickly removed, as it wasn't supposed to be there anyway.

Cheers for the help.
