    redirect after auto script

    I have a page 'pni.php' to which paypal is redirecting after payment
    thsi page contains a db update script, no problem it's running well

    but once this script is executed (transparently for the use, as there
    is nothing to display)
    how can I redirect to another page ?

    header redirect can only be placed at the beginning of the page... not
    at the end
    I've already writen redirection but only when there was a form inside
    and a user action.. to refresh the page , this is not the case ... :-((

    pni.php
    <?
    DN update script from Paypal _POST data
    ....
    (no display, no user action)
    ...
    auto redirect to another page ? -> index.php
    ?>

      You "can" make a call to header() at the end of the page as long as
      there's been no output to the broswer. If you're using include() or
      require(), make sure there's no newlines or extra spaces in the update
      script or else the call to header() will fail.

          headers must come before any emitted content.
          but needn't come at the start of the script.

          if the script produces no output you can put the header() call anywhere.

          you can put the header at either end of the script. it makes no difference
          as long as it has no produced content before it.

          Bye.

              Thanks for you answers ... after a good rest, I discovered that I put
              it in the wrong included files ...

              pni.php includes pni_succes.php end include pni_error.php
              the redirect MUST be writtent at the end of the pni_php !!!

                      <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="x;url= ./index.php" />

                      Where x is number of seconds before redirect
                      put it into the header of you page. And put some link that the user can
                      follow if the redirect does not work
