HTTP::redirect -- redirects the client
Description
This function redirects the client. This is done by issuing
a Location: header and exiting.
Example
This will redirect the client to
/foo.php.
The method will take care of adding the right hostname as
required by
RFC 2616.
Note
This function can be called
statically.
Avoid sending any kind of data to the client before calling
redirect().
The location header requires an absolute URL. If not given,
redirect() tries to build one from
$url. So if the redirect fails,
set the absolute URL manually as argument.
