Ok here is the code

 

it runs on button click

 

What i want to do is chage the uri on button click

 

<form action="<?=$_SERVER['PHP_SELF'];?>" method="post">

 

<?php
/* 
* Created on 2011/02/01
* Created by Marinus
*/
   //Step 1  date validation//

   if(isset($_POST['submit'])) {

     $startDate = strtotime($_POST['startdate']);
     $endDate = strtotime($_POST['enddate']);
      if($startDate != false && $endDate != false){
        $startDate = date("Y-m-d",$startDate);
        $endDate = date('Y-m-d',$endDate);
         SetDates($startDate,$endDate);
        }

      else
      {
      echo "Please select both dates!";
      }

   }
function SetDates($start,$end){
    $connection =   mysql_connect('*****', '*****', '******')   ;
    mysql_select_db('OnlineBookings');
    $query  = //Hidin
    $result = mysql_query($query);
    $nonAvailableRooms = "";
      while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))
      {

        $nonAvailableRooms .="'". $row['Code'] ."',";


        
      }
      if($nonAvailableRooms == "")
      {
          ShowAllRooms();

      }
      else
          {

          Codes($nonAvailableRooms);

          }

    echo mysql_error();
   }


   function Codes($findedCodes){

   $findedCodes =  substr($findedCodes, 0, -1);
    $query  = "SELECT (Code),Description,Notes  FROM Item WHERE code NOT IN ($findedCodes)";
    $result = mysql_query($query);
    $i = 0;
      while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))
      {
        $i++;

        echo "<div style='border:1px solid black'><a title=\"".$row['Notes']." href=\"rooms/".$row['Code'].".jpg\"><img height=120px width=140px src=\"rooms/".$row['Code'].".jpg\" border=0></a>";
        echo "<br/>Room Code :{$row['Code']} <br> Room Description : {$row['Description']}
       <br/> <input id='chk_$i' type='checkbox' name='option$i' onclick='showValue(this);' value='{$row['Code']}'><br> Book this room.  </div>" ;

      }
      if($i == 0){
          echo "There is no available rooms.";
      }
      else
          {
         
          
          header('index.php?name=Next');
          }

   }
   function ShowAllRooms()
   {
     $query  = "SELECT *  FROM item";
     $result = mysql_query($query);
     $i = 0;
      while($row = mysql_fetch_array($result, MYSQL_ASSOC))
      {
        $i++;
         echo "<div style='border:1px solid black'><a href=\"rooms/".$row['Code'].".jpg\"><img height=120px width=140px src=\"rooms/".$row['Code'].".jpg\" border=0></a>";
        echo "<br/>Room Code :{$row['Code']} <br> Room Description : {$row['Description']}
        <br/><input id='chk_$i' type='checkbox' name='option$i' onclick='showValue(this);' value='{$row['Code']}'>Book this room.<br>  </div>" ;

      }
        
header('index.php?name=Next');

   }

   //Step 2 the code to run after dates is valid


?>

 

 

So when all is validated i want the button to chage uri to

 

header('index.php?name=Next');

 

and then change button value to  Next or $_SELF or some vairable that i can run to change button click procedure

 

todo step 2

<input id="Submit" type="submit" name="submit" value="<?php  ?>"/></div>

 

Hope someone can help me

 

Thanks

The header function is used to set http headers. You want to set the location header.

 

header('Location: index.php?name=Next');

 

Also, the http states that the location header should be a complete uri, this includes the domain name, not just a relative uri. (Most browsers will handle it either way, but best to be safe than sorry)

 

So, you'll want something like....

 

header('Location: yourdomain.com/index.php?name=Next');
