In this tutorial we will show you the solution of how to redirect to another page in PHP after submit, here we defined form with submit button in html page when user clicks submit button in php we can easily find out by isset() method and for redirect we need to use header() function.
In header() method we need to give path information of which page need to load as a result in webpage except header() we had another option in php using window service.
Step By Step Guide On How To Redirect To Another Page In PHP After Submit :-
Here we used isset() and header() method for achieve result.
The isset() function checks whether a variable is set, which means that it has to be declared and is not NULL.
This function returns true if the variable exists and is not NULL, otherwise it returns false.
The header is a php built-in function for sending a raw HTTP header.
The HTTP functions are those that manipulate information sent by the webserver to the client or browser before it sends any further output.
<?php
if(isset($_POST['submit'])){
header('Location: new_page.html');
}
?>
<!Doctype html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Redirect After Submit</title>
</head>
<body>
<form method="post" action="">
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="submit">
</form>
</body>
</html>
NEW_PAGE.HTML
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>Welcome To Redirected Location...</h1>
</body>
</html>
- A php script can be placed anywhere in the document. A php script starts with <?php and end with ?>.
- The default file extension for php files is “.php” and php statements end with ‘;’ semicolon.
- First we need to create html form so we defined form in html code with submit button. Here we need to confirm two things one is form whether had method attribute with ‘post’ value and then submit whether had name attribute with value.
- Because in php when we need to access form elements those are important then only we can do further process.
- In php as we seen isset method, here we checking whether submit is set when user clicks submit button if submit is set then header() method loads path of location we defined.
- Here we used url of new_page html file this is needs to created in same directory. So when user click submit current php file redirect to new_page html file.
