Hi

Hope someone might be able to help me with a simple form i am looking to run.

The form is in HTML format but is processed through a PHP script

See :
<?php
// initialize a variable to
// put any errors we encounter into an array
$errors = array();

// check to see if a name was entered
if (!$_POST['EmailAddress'])
// if not, add that error to our array
$errors[] = "Email Addess is Required";
// check to see if a subject was entered
if (!$_POST['Name'])
// if not, add that error to our array
$errors[] = "Name is required";
// if there are any errors, display them
if (count($errors)>0){
echo "<strong>ERROR:<br>\n";
foreach($errors as $err)
echo "$err<br>\n";
} else {
// no errors, so we build our message
$recipient = xxxxxxxxxatxxxxxx.com';
$from = stripslashes($_POST['Name']);
$subject = stripslashes($_POST['Subject']);
$msg = "Message sent by $from\n
".stripslashes($_POST['MsgBody']);
if (mail($recipient,$subject,$msg))
echo "Thanks for your message we will be in contact with you shortly!";
else
echo "An unknown error occurred.";
}
?>

It works fine for what i need but i would like it to go to a new url once submitted .

Eg : press submit then it new page loaded with echo "Thanks for your message we will be in contact with you shortly!"; then redirect to a www.isellstuff.com

Thanks in advance

[php]
header ("Location: url.php");
[/php]

This will only work though if you haven't yet output headers. This means that if you echo out an error, it will fail.
