Redirecting Pages with PHP causing problems
- by psp
I have a page which has a link to a php page which takes data from $_GET and updates a database. After that it returns the user to the homepage with:
header("Location: http://localhost/");
The thing is that this seems to "interrupt" the mysql part of the code. If I remove this redirect, everything in the database is updated, but when I put it back, nothing gets updated...
This is the database update code, I am using a class of mine as a mysql wrapper:
$conn->where('hash',$data1['hash']);
$conn->update(TABLE_ITEMS,$newData1);
$conn->where('hash',$data2['hash']);
$conn->update(TABLE_ITEMS,$newData2);
Notes:
-There is no text or echo()'s on the page and no space before the <?php tag
Order of Code:
Data received from $_SESSION and $_GET
Data processed and placed into arrays
Data placed into mysql database
header(); used to redirect page
Code
<?php
require_once('config.php');
import();
if ( isset ( $_GET['g'] ) && isset ( $_SESSION['itemA'] ) && isset ( $_SESSION['itemB'] ) ) {
$itemA = $_SESSION['gameA'];
$itemB = $_SESSION['gameB'];
$newData1 = processData($itemA);
$newData2 = processData($itemB);
$conn->update(TABLE_ITEMS,$newData1);
$conn->update(TABLE_ITEMS,$newData2);
header('Location: http://localhost/');
} else {
header('Location: http://localhost/');
}
