This script is driving me up the wall. It's a simple submission form. I click the "submit" button and the email with all the submitted information is generated perfectly fine.
But I can't get the button to then redirect me to the "Thank You" page.
I've tried PHP, I've tried Javascript, I've even tried good old fashioned Meta Redirect. Nothing works.
// create email headers
$headers = 'From: '.$email_from."\r\n".
'Reply-To: '.$email_from."\r\n" .
'X-Mailer: PHP/' . phpversion();
mail($email_to, $email_subject, $email_message, $headers);
header("location:http://amvleague.vitaminh.info/thankyou.html")
}
die();
?>
I've tried putting the "header" part at the top of the document. I've tried changing it to:
echo '<script>document.location="page2.html"; </script>';
I've generated so many emails with this script that gmail is now sending them all to spam. And I can't get the damn thing to redirect.
If anyone can help before I claw my eyes out, it would be much obliged. ^_^;;
EDIT: I've tried everything you've all suggested. It's as if the script just flat-out refuses to execute anything that comes after the mail command. Could there be a reason for this?
EDIT 2: Still nothing's working.
Here's the entire script (with Rolen Koh's modifications). Is there something hidden in here that is preventing the script from accessing anything that comes after the mail tag?
