That depends on you actual code.
There's the header(location: http://url.to.page/); command that you could
use, but if you're already starting a session, I believe that you can't use
the header() command since the session already sends the header.
Though you could always include(); the member_area.php page at the point
that you print "Please click here..." or simply hard-code the
member_area.php code there as well.
There's a ton of different options, but without knowing your code, we have
no way of knowing the best one for the situation.

Subject: [PHP-WIN] Automatic load .php page
Greetings,
Instead of using:
<p>Please click here to go to <a href = "member_area.php">member
area</a>.</p>
in my login.php page to go to "member_area.php" once the user was
authenticated, could I just make this AUTO?
Thanks in advance.

You could just add this to the authentication page:
<HEAD>
<META HTTP-EQUIV=Refresh CONTENT="2; URL=member_area.php">
</HEAD>
<B>Logging you in, hang tight!</b>
You could just set the time to zero and it will auto send to the next page,
and leave out the text.
Thanks,

Greetings,
I'm designing a table with 21 columns and 3 rows (1-row column header, 2-row
data) store in .php file, and each cell of this table storing a value, that
I stored it using MySQL database. Now, I want all the values (just the
values, but NOT the table) shown on this page automatic update every
1-second.
So, I use "create_table.php" to create the table and automatic load
"get_data.php" every 1-second to retrieve data from database. Once the
"get_data.php" loaded, my IE only show those data and the table disappeared.
Please help. Thanks in advance.

One possible reason why it does not work is that the DAY() function does not
exist.
Use DATE_FORMAT() instead.

My platform: W2000 Server SP4 with latest MS vulnerability patches applied.
Apache 1.3.22, PHP 4.2.2.
Since a couple of weeks I have this very nasty problem: Intermittently PHP
is not parsing a valid script. It spits out an error regarding some syntax
error in the code, but the code is in fact perfectly ok. In fact if I reload
the page the script executes normally.
This happens (unfortunately) quite often now, albeit randomly. I would say
that in 10-15% of script executions it happens.
Anyone has a clue of what might be wrong?
Thanks in advance
Francesco

There might be a lot of reasons, but a some brains storm ideas might be:
a) New type of data (well formed or not) is feed to the script,
and it cant handle this type of format.
b) New functionality has been added and these function can't handle
either valid or invalid data formats
c) Old functions has been changed and trigger an error when certain
kind of data is feed to them.
d) time out problems
e) solar activities
f) hacking activities has compromised parts of the system
g) data has, become inconsistent in the db by some reason
I would suggest that you insert debug code in your scripts that
validates data and in addition prints out a trace of function calls,
to be able to get an answer on the following question:
Does the error always emerge when this particular part of
code is executed, or does it happen only in certain cases?
If it happens in only certain cases try to isolate the set of
data that causes the error to emerge, and then back track to
the particular code segment that causes the script to fault.
If it always happens review your (entire) code carefully once
again, that is including the full call stack.
Kind regards,
//Anders

Unfortunately it cannot be a data problem, because PHP finds syntax errrors
every time in some other part of the code. And not just in one script, also
in many others. Also in a distributed application (an evaluation versione of
WebEdition CMS) I got those "false" syntax errors. Every time, it is
sufficient to reload the page (F5 in IE) and the script executes normally.
This happens not only from my client PC but also from other clients. I am
sure it has not been hacked (it's an Intranet). So it is looks really like a
problem of PHP-Apache itself.

If you're positive that it's the server(s), then why not take another
machine, install PHP & Apache, port the code and confirm that it's
code-independant?

In that case; has anybody changes the server settings?
You might want to review all relevant settings of the server.

I ported all the code/data to a twin machine I have. And there everything
works fine - no problems - as was also in my production machine, before the
problems started to appear.
The *only* difference between the 2 machines is that one has W2000 Server
Italian version, and the other one the English version. For the rest, they
have the same software mounted.
I have no clue of what happened. Also I don't know which config params to
look at, because the error I'm getting is so weird. Unfortunately it would
be a big work to reinstall my production machine from start. Any clue
someone?
