Re: redirection question

Perhaps this is not the best design right now in my php script, but I've
just started with php after a long break.

The thing is that I enter a page called foo1.php, this script do some
calculations and should then send directly send the user to a page called
foo2.php together with the variables $bar and $bar2.

On the page foo1.php there will be no input or any clicking required by the
user. Just as soon as the values are calculated, it should continue.
How can I achieve this?


If the data is not sensitive, you can simply use the header() function
to redirect to the appropriate page passing the variables as
parameters in the URI.

i.e.
header('Location: http://site.com/somepage.php?foo=$foo&bar=$bar";);

Otherwise, if you need to hide the parameters, or do not want the page
to be bookmarked you can set the parameters in the session before
redirecting and omit them from the URI.

see:
http://php.net/header
for more info.

Hope that helps,
Carl.
