SABmore Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 I'm working on customizing an open-source PHP CRM system (SugarCRM) and need some straightforward PHP help. I'm working thru an old example of writing changes to a log file and I'd like to take it one step further and open a new browser window once the save/write is done. Using the code below, could someone please direct me how to open the new window?. I basically want to pop open a new browser window from within the function below. I tried fopen, but it times out when going to a test URL such as http://www.cnn.com function UserToLog($strText){ $File = 'C:\wamp\www\log.txt'; $Handle = fopen($File, 'a'); $Data = $strText . "\n"; if($Handle){ fwrite($Handle, $Data); fclose($Handle); } //WANT TO OPEN NEW BROWSER WINDOW HERE...or wherever is correct. } All assistance is greatly appreciated. Thanks!

Garethp Posted January 24, 2011 Share Posted January 24, 2011 You can't open a new window, but you can change the location of the page the user is currently on. If you haven't sent ANYTHING to the browser (through echo or otherwise) you can use header("Location: something.php"); Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
