Why can't the php script redirect the browser when called via ajax ?


Ajax is giving PHP control over just that byte-stream that ajax is receiving and perhaps inserting into the page, not the full page itself.

Say you use javascript to set the src of an img to a PHP script. When the request is made, PHP redirects to another resource. This will affect only the image object in question, not the HTML page in which the image exists.

I'm not sure why, but this is making sense. :-)

I suspected something like that was going on in the background.

Thanks,
