Hi, I am still having trouble redirecting a form. Let me explain, I have a form inserting data into a table within a mysql database. However once the user presses the submit button it goes straight back to the initial page except with a ? after the php filename. I want the page to be displayed after submit to be the confirm page. Any ideas?

Form Page -> Processing Page -> Confirmation Page.
1. In Form Page, put the action form to the URL of the processing Page.
2. In Processing Page, insert data into table, blabal and put
header("Location: URL_OF_CONFIRMATION_PAGE"); in the last action. it should direct to the confirmation page.
Regards,
Namida

tshey,
Make sure you have set the action of the form to point to the file you want to process/insert with.
Failing that, make an extreme cut-down version of your page that contains only the required information to test this problem (no CSS, no javascript)... and then post the code (wrapped in [code]...[/code] tags) for us to look at.
Cheers,

Hi tshey
i'd hoped i'd given you all the tools you'd need in your other post on the same topic.
there were parse errors in this code (as i'd feared and mentioned). i have corrected it and posted the revised code here.
the success element is in lines 51 to 61 and i have provided you with code to exemplify both a fully autoprocessing page and one that redirects to a success page (the latter in line 58).
