I have been trying to get my PHP contact form to go to a different page after it is properly submitted. Currently this form works great as a means to send an email to my account and inform the user it has not been properly filled out, adding a redirect has not worked well though.
Doing research i have heard many people mention the header() command and how it works for redirects but have been unsuccessful in getting it to work with my code. I have updated the code to represent how i used the header command. Currently all it does is send my page back to itself and starts the form over. Dreamweaver does not show any errors in code
Any help would be appreciated. I have placed my code below
