    redirecting

    what is wrong with
    <?php
    if(!stristr($_S ERVER['SERVER_NAME'], 'www')) {
    Header("Locatio n: http://www.theSpear.ne t" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
    exit();
    }
    ?>

    I am trying to make it redirect to www.theSpear.net if www. is not there,
    but it doesnt work.. any ideas?

      Perhaps you can check with your DNS host and configure a www subdomain.

              I don't see any problem with the code unless I'm missing something. Just
              make SURE that there is absolutely NO whitespace or any output to the
              browser before the headers are processed and sent. Meaning the following
              will NOT work:

              <html>
              <?php include 'includeme.php' ; ?>
              <?php
              if(!stristr($_S ERVER['SERVER_NAME'], 'www')) {
              Header("Locatio n: http://www.theSpear.ne t" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
              exit();
              }
              ?>

              Double check the manual for more information on headers
              PHP: header - Manual
              http://ca3.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php
              Send a raw HTTP header

                  Because $_SERVER['SERVER_NAME'] will return the name of the server as
                  SET on the server. So will probably always be 'www.thespear.n et' or
                  whatever.


                  You'd want: $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], although not all browsers send this.

                  <?php
                  if (!stristr($_SER VER['HTTP_HOST'], 'www') &&
                  !empty($_SERVER['HTTP_HOST']))
                  {
                  Header("Locatio n: http://www.theSpear.ne t" . $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
                  exit();
                  }
                  ?>

                  Would be a solution, with a check to avoid a race condition (browser
                  that doesn't send a Host: header).

                          For "get queries"....

                          You can try:

                          header( "Location:
                          http://www.theSpear.ne t$_SERVER[PHP_SELF]?$_SERVER[QUERY_STRING]" );
