Link not working in IE

[petenaylor]

Hi all

 

I have a page which has the following link on it:

 

<a href="view-listings.php?live&id=<?php echo $showlistings['id'] ?>" title="Click here to make this listing live"><img src="../images/not-live.gif" width="20" title="Click here to make this listing live" alt="Click here to make this listing live" /></a>

 

Which runs this part of the script:

 

if (isset($_GET['live'])) {

$liveid = $_GET['id'];

mysql_query("UPDATE `listings` SET live = 1 WHERE id = '".$liveid."'");

header ("Location: view-listings.php");

}

 

Which works great on Safari but it says "Page cannot be displayed" on a PC running Internet Explorer 8?

 

Please help!

 

Pete

The query string should be like ?name1=value1&name2=value2 etc. so try this:

 

href="view-listings.php?live=1&id=<?php echo $showlistings['id']; ?>"

The query string should be like ?name1=value1&name2=value2 etc. so try this:

 

href="view-listings.php?live=1&id=<?php echo $showlistings['id']; ?>"

 

Who says that? Even if it were technically incorrect, I very much doubt that would trip up a web browser.

 

If you remove the header() call, does the error still show?

I ran into a similar problem recently.

 

"view-listings.php?live&id" is the issue, you need to give live a value of some kind. "view-listings.php?live=1&id" would work.

Fixed!

 

All I needed to do was remove the header call and it worked!

 

Cheers Mr Adam!
