[Loris-dev] header redirect

[David MacFarlane, Mr]

The location HTTP header doesn't take quotation marks. The single quote at the start is likely causing the browser to treat it as a relative link.


Try:

        header("Location: $actual_link");

Subject: [Loris-dev] header redirect

Hi Guys,

I am trying to do a redirect on my instrument (after the save button has been clicked), and it doesn't work.  I am guessing there are some redirect rules somewhere else that are affecting what I'm trying to do.

My code is the follows:

        $actual_link = "https://loris.loris.ca/main.php?test_name=E4_Data" . $endOfURL;
        header("Location: '$actual_link'");

I then get redirected to this instead:

http://loris.concordia.ca/E4_Data/'https:/loris.loris.ca/main.php/?test_name=E4_Data&candID=936829&sessionID=53&commentID=936829PER0002531241502311230%27


Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Tom
