hi I’m trying to redirect my page to another page after a user registers. but every time the user registers, it inputs the detail to the database but it doesn’t allow them to register. it is doing this to every header statement I have on each page on my website.
I was told it’s because of an echo (html) before the header, I’m new to all this so please can anyone help me
thank you
this is the code to my register page:
[php]
<?php
error_reporting(E_ALL);
ini_set('display_errors', '1');
?>
<?php
// Connect to the MySQL database
include "../storescripts/connect_to_mysql.php";
//This code runs if the form has been submitted
if (isset($_POST['submit'])) {
//This makes sure they did not leave any fields blank
if (!$_POST['firstname'] | !$_POST['surname'] | !$_POST['address1'] | !$_POST['postcode'] | !$_POST['phonenumber'] | !$_POST['username'] | !$_POST['pass'] | !$_POST['pass2'] | !$_POST['email'] ) {
header(“location: register_user_fail.php”);
exit();
}
// checks if the username is in use
if (!get_magic_quotes_gpc()) {
$_POST['username'] = addslashes($_POST['username']);
}
$usercheck = $_POST['username'];
$check = mysql_query("SELECT username FROM user WHERE username = '$usercheck'")
or die(mysql_error());
$check2 = mysql_num_rows($check);
//if the name exists it gives an error
if ($check2 != 0) {
header("location: username_is_used.php");
exit();
}
// this makes sure both passwords entered match
if ($_POST['pass'] != $_POST['pass2']) {
header(“location: password_don’t_match.php”);
exit();
}
// now we insert it into the database
$insert = "INSERT INTO user (firstname, surname, address1, address2, postcode, phonenumber, username, password, email)
VALUES ('".$_POST['firstname']."', '".$_POST['surname']."', '".$_POST['address1']."', '".$_POST['address2']."', '".$_POST['postcode']."', '".$_POST['phonenumber']."', '".$_POST['username']."', '".$_POST['pass']."', '".$_POST['email']."')";
$add_member = mysql_query($insert);
if (!$add_member) echo “$insert
”.mysql_error();
?>
<?php
header("location: register_success.php");
exit(); ?>
<?php
}
else
{
?>
