Simple problem I think!!!!!

[Gavin]

I have the following code:

if(mail($to,$subject,$body,$from))
{
//go to Spoono
Header ("Location: http://www.spoono.com/"); - Line 21 is here.

}
else
{
//else go to Yahoo
Header ("Location: http://www.yahoo.com/");
}

Easy Eh!!!

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

I get this error ALLLLL the time, and can't work out why. Any Ideas?

Warning: Cannot modify header information - headers already sent by (output
started at /home/www/listerradio.com/mail.php:12) in
/home/www/listerradio.com/mail.php on line 21

Thanks

Gavin.

This is the most frequently asked question of them all.

To quote the manual ([url]http://www.php.net/header):[/url]

"Remember that header() must be called before any actual output is sent,
either by normal HTML tags, blank lines in a file, or from PHP."

The problem is mail() is generating some output which prevents header() from
working properly. Put an @ in front of the mail function call to suppress
mail()'s output:

if (@mail(...)

All you have to do is use output buffering. simply call
ob_start()
before anything else runs.
