chris, i'd already asked/explained the error. to reiterate, the error i'm getting is the error that's generated when you try to use the php 'header' function, and it throws a warning/error regarding 'headers already being sent...' the soln appears to be to use the php buffering functions, as this is supposed to stop output from being generated/posted, allowing the app to 'buffer' the output until the page is displayed. i've tried to use an 'ob_start()' as the very 1st line in the index.php page that's being displayed. i've also tried to insert the 'ob_start()' in a number of various places within the app with no change... my question was how/what could i possibly do, short of using the javascript soln, which seems to work... i also stated that i could readily provide the code that i'm creating if anyone wanted to take an actual look. and as i also stated, yeah, it could/should be cleaned up, but for now, it's a test app... -bruce -----Original Message----- From: Chris Shiflett [mailto:shiflett@xxxxxxx] Sent: Sunday, September 18, 2005 8:20 PM To: bedouglas@xxxxxxxxxxxxx Cc: 'php' Subject: Re: headers .vs javascript location.href bruce wrote: > need to talk to someone to figure out how/what i need to do to use > the php 'headers' function, as opposed to the javascript 'location.href'. > > i've tried to implement the buffering functions, but still get the same > error... > > is there someone that i can talk to about this, who ha > experience/understanding of what's going on. i've thought about rewriting > what i have to this point, but i've got code interspersed with html... > > yeah.. i know... cleaning it up would probably make things easier/better, > but this is a quick/dirty test.. and i don't claim to be a web developer! You need to ask a question if you want to receive an answer. If your question really is whether there is anyone you can talk to, then the answer is yes. There are quite a few people on this list who know a great deal about the topics you mention. (You might want to start by clarifying the reference to "the same error.")
