Are there alternative methods to using header("Location:...") for redirecting to a "Thank you" page after form submission in PHP?
Using header("Location:...") for redirection after form submission in PHP can sometimes cause issues, especially if there is any output before the header function is called. An alternative method is to use JavaScript to redirect the user after form submission. This ensures that the redirection happens after all the necessary processing is done.
// Process form submission
if ($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST") {
// Handle form data
// Redirect using JavaScript
echo "<script>window.location.replace('thank_you_page.php');</script>";
exit;
}
