Hello there,
I don't know if this is possible or not but i want to make a silent redirect from one page to other based on condition specified in php code. I do not want the page url to change when redirecting. Since the condition is based in php code, i cannot use .htaccess
Any ideas? thanks in advance.
Regards
Mike

For example
header("Location: urlyouwantto use");
It's in the documentation here
http://us3.php.net/header

that will change the address bar, I do not want to change address bar and want to silently redirect to a new page.

Define silently, because if you want to edit the contents of the page in realtime you will need to use ajax

by silently, i meant redirecting to a different page without changing the url. i don't think its possible using php code so i have used includes and that did the job. anyways thanks for your help!!

Insert at first line of page:
Code: Select all
<?php
include('otherpage.php');
die();
?>
