Hello, I need some help with PHP and Redirectal stuff. What I am doing is implementing a a script on my site that simply checks the availability of domain names. However, if a domain name IS available, I would like the customer to be redirected to "Page A." If the domain name is NOT available, I would like the customer to be redirected to "Page B." Below is the script that I need to edited. Thanks and I would greatly appreciate any help I can get.

Matt

<?
include ("tld_check_form.php");
function whois ($a_server, $a_query, $a_port=43)
{
$available = "No match";
$available2 = "Not found";
$a_query = str_replace("www.", "", $a_query);
$a_query = str_replace("http://", "", $a_query);
global $whois_servers;
@reset($whois_servers);
$a_query = $a_query . "." .
$a_server;
$a_server = $whois_servers[$a_server];
$sock = @fsockopen($a_server,$a_port);

IF (!$sock) {
echo ("<b>Could Not Connect To Server.</b>");
}

ELSE {
$send_request = @fputs($sock,"$a_query\r\n");

IF (!$send_request) {
echo ("<B>Unable to send request.</B>");
}

ELSE
{
while(!feof($sock)) {
$result .= fgets($sock,128);
}

$result = str_replace("\n", "<br>", $result);


IF (@eregi($available,$result) OR @eregi($available2,$result)) {

echo ("<BR><BR>
<font color=\"blue\"><b>$a_query is available.</b></font>");
}

ELSE {
echo ("<BR><BR>
<font color=\"red\"><b>$a_query is not available.</b></font>
<BR>
");
}
@fclose($sock);

}
}
}
// Check request, post form

IF (!empty($_REQUEST[query]))
{
whois($_REQUEST[server],$_REQUEST[query]);
}
ELSE IF (isset($_REQUEST[query]))
{
echo ("<b>Domain name left blank. Please fill in a domain name and try again.</b>");
}

?>

Sure, you just need to use the header() function in php. This must be used before any actual output to the browser, so before any echo or such like.

Say i wanted to redirect someone to google, just do this

PHP Code:

header("Location: http://www.google.com/"); 


This what you wanted? Just for future reference please enclose all your PHP coding in the PHP square brackets!

Or this PHP CODE : header ("location: thankyou.php"); which ever one you wanna use.

aint they the same thing?

Watever anyway ! Extreme just letting him know that they are same thing.

Did I miss something?

Not at all .

Hey guys, thanks for your interest in helping me. However, where EXACTLY in my coding do I add the necessary new coding? Please look at my coding that I posted above and just copy and paste the part where the new stuff needs to be added. Thanks again and I really appreciate it.

Inside your code here:


IF (@eregi($available,$result) OR @eregi($available2,$result)) {

echo ("<BR><BR>
<font color=\"blue\"><b>$a_query is available.</b></font>");
}

ELSE {
echo ("<BR><BR>
<font color=\"red\"><b>$a_query is not available.</b></font>
<BR>
");


Instead of the 'echo' statements, put the 'header' code (shown above) that's used to redirect the user.
