[TriLUG] Restricting access within PHP

Fri Jun 24 19:43:18 EDT 2005

I would add a little bit since there are some browsers (you know which)
that do not handle the location header redirect correctly and might
display the rest of your page.  It's old-skool ghetto, but the
meta-refresh is the most reliable way to redirect people.  It's the
exit() that's important though, to make sure the people don't see the
rest of the page.

    print '<html><head>';
    print '<meta http-equiv="REFRESH" content="0; URL=http://foo.bar/otherpage.php">';
    print '<body>Denied</body></html>';

    exit();
