You are lifesaver. couldn't figure out why redirect won't work. Finally, that was the exit command, which was missing. Thanks a million..

Didn't find this elsewhere, looked for it for hours!
Thank you, Sir - subscribed and liked!

Beautifully explained. Thanks for this tutorial!

Thx, I always did this wrong. Instead of exit I used die() and I never sent the correct status code... I have to see your other videos. You're amazing!

Excellent video. Thank you. Can you please comment on how to send cookies to a different domain in a redirect? They don’t seem to work in JavaScript and I don’t know how to create and send a cookie on a form submit to page on a different domain. Thank you.

Thanks.

My own issue is that when I login it will say login successful and hang there without redirecting me to the dashboard.

How can I fix this issue?
