Auto forward to form

[mrobinson]

Could somebody please tell me how to forward from one form to another with no user input. for example, my form takes information from one form and inserts it into the database. once this is done, i want it to forward onto another form to start the process again automatically. Thus the form is not seen, it just inserts the data and then goes onto show another form. Any help would be much appriciated.

if the form and processing pages are on different pages then use

header("location:nextformpage.html|php");

will work as long as there is no output to the browser

The HTTP specification say that when the location header is used it has to have the full name of the scriot to ececute e.g. header("Location:

http://fred.com/nextformpage.html");

I don't know what the |PHP means here though

|PHP....

It probably should have read:

header("location:nextformpage.[html|php]");


More explicitly specifying:

header("location:nextformpage.html");
or
header("location:nextformpage.php");

Yes, that is correct. Thought it was self-explanatory that it could be directed to either page type

my bad.
