PHP page Forward

Post by TravisT6983 »

ok i am trying to create city pages such as birmingham.php that all it does is forward to the search result for birmingham we are a real estate company that is trying to get some better SEO with all our surrounding citys... our search results page land on listings.php

i have done this to our footer of each page with this form action

Code: Select all

 
<form name="Birmingham" action="listings.php" method="post">
                <input type="hidden" name="searchType" value="custom">
              <input type="hidden" name="newSearch" value="true">
              <input type="hidden" name="table" value="rs">
              <input type="hidden" name="city" value="2192">
              <input type="hidden" name="beforeListPrice" value="0">
              <input type="hidden" name="afterListPrice" value="any">
              <input type="hidden" name="featuredOnly" value="false">
</form>   
<a href="javascript&#058;void[0];" onclick="document.forms['Birmingham'].submit(); return false;">Birmingham</a>
 
is it possible to use this form action in like a PHP header forward?

Code: Select all

 
<?php
header("location: javascript&#058;void[0]; onclick="document.forms['Birmingham'].submit(); return false;"");
?>
Any suggestions on this would be a great help
Thank You

No.

But you could do something like this:

Code: Select all

window.onload = function(){document.forms['Birmingham'].submit();}
But wait...you're going to make a script for every city?

That code is javascript that will submit the form when the page is loaded. Is that not what you want?

And that sounds awful!!
Why not write one script that handles multiple cities?
