Redirect - PHP $location?
I know this may sound weird, but I need it.
I need to have a page:
where it shows "Fetching page" on the screen and then, after 5 seconds, loads Yahoo!.Code:http://yourdomain.com/yourfiles/loader.php?location=http://www.yahoo.com
Or, by changing the URL, Google.

Try this:
Hope this helps.Code:<?php if (isset($_GET['location']) && $_GET['location'] != "") { header('Refresh:5; url='.$_GET["location"]); echo 'Fetching Page: '.$_GET["location"]; } else { //if url was not passed, then display form ?> <form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="GET"> URL: <input type="text" name="location"> <input type="submit" value="Fetch URL"> </form> <?php } ?>

could work, but is it possible to display absolutely nothing if no URL? Would it just be:PHP Code:<?php
if (isset($_GET['location']) && $_GET['location'] != "") {
header('Refresh:5; url='.$location);
echo 'Fetching Page: '.$_GET["location"];
}
else {
//if url was not passed, then display form
?>
<form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="GET">
URL: <input type="text" name="location"> <input type="submit" value="Fetch URL">
</form>
<?php
}
?>
PHP Code:<?php
if (isset($_GET['location']) && $_GET['location'] != "") {
header('Refresh:5; url='.$location);
echo 'Fetching Page: '.$_GET["location"];
}
?>

You got it. Just remember to call the script like so:Originally Posted by techno_race
(Remember the http:// or else it will not work properly).Code:page.php?location=http://www.yahoo.com
Hope this helps.

My idea of not having else resulted in:
(mydomain.com is replacing my website address [se********.com]) Yes, I was using a PHP Web server.

Try this instead then:
and if that doesn't work, instead of using header redirects use javascript or meta redirects instead.Code:<?php if (isset($_GET['location']) && $_GET['location'] != "") { header('Refresh:5; url='.$_GET["location"]); echo 'Fetching Page: '.$_GET["location"]; } ?>
Hope this helps.Code:<?php if (isset($_GET['location']) && $_GET['location'] != "") { echo '<html><head> <meta http-equiv="Refresh" content="5;url='.$_GET["location"].'"> </head> <body> echo 'Fetching Page: '.$_GET["location"].'</body></html>'; } ?>
