Sticky header function

[Anonymous]

All header commands need to be sent before you send any text, including HTML, whitespace, PHP echo/print, etc.

Try this

<?php

ob_start();
 $email = $_REQUEST['email'] ;
$message = $_REQUEST['message'] ;

mail( "myemailaddress@emailaddress.com", "Feedback Form Results",
$message, "From: $email" );
header( "Location: thankyou.html" ); 
?>

Ugh. Output Buffering (i.e. ob_start()) is not the answer to headers problems.

Do you mean that it has to be the first function in the php code?

No, I mean that it has to come before any and all output. It has to be before any echo or print function, before any HTML, and before any whitespace.

O, I thought it would work since PHP gave an example of a cookie being set after ob_start().

before any whitespace.

Thats probably what you did. Try checking your script and see if there are lines before the "<?php", so that "<?php" appears as your first line

it may happend that sendmail.php is included in some other script... in that case -- you will not be able to use header() if the parent script makes an output first... use meta refresh or javascript for redirecting..

are you including the sendmail.php into some other script?!

like index.php includes sendmail.php or something like that..
