Re: How to redirect after a valid login

[Brent Baisley <brent@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You can do a redirect at any point in your code as long as you haven't  
sent anything to the browser yet. You can run 10,000 lines of PHP code  
and do 1,000 queries and still send a redirect to the browser. In a nut  
shell, have no echo statement before your redirect.
