PHP header() and jquery mobile

Question

I would like to use a php header('Location: newpage.php') to redirect.

I got no error, but Jquery mobile seems to fail loading the destination page and the address bar stays with the old address.

Do you have an advice please ?

Thanks!

Solution 1

try to add data-ajax="false" when you call that page, before redirecting using php header()

Solution 2

That code sends a 302 redirect header to the user's browser, instructing it to redirect to the provided URL. It should work. Have you checked the syntax? Information here: http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.header.php

It has nothing to do with ajax. The php header location should be called before any html.

You are right Cymbals but thanks to Wenkhairu I have remember that I used to put data-ajax="false" on all my FORM in jquery mobile site, I had just forgot to put on this one...

Actually it does, as jQM changes all <a> call to XHR, and then parses the response. This means that it depends on your navigator's behavior. But since then, in 2014 now looks like to be ok everywhere :)
