php header redirect causing issues
hi all

we're working with this company that requires that we use soap to send data back and forth for verification

they have told us to keep a temporary session variable alive
this variable last for 20 minutes, and after 20 minutes we should redirect the user to the other company's site for re-authentication
we're having a problem at the moment, and we're not sure what it is
the document that we redirect to is an xml document
so what we do is, we try to get the info that we need, if that doesn't work, then we redirect the user to the other site

PHP Code:
// get required info        
try {
            $strID = $sc->getId($tempvar);
        }
//problem getting info, do re-authentication, by sending user to authentication site
        catch (SoapFault $strException) {
            header('Location: ' . $strRefreshSessionUrl . '?r=' . $server . $self . $qs);
            exit;
        } 


the problem we are having is not in the php, it is when testing on a handset
we get the error message file format unknown
i'm not sure whether that is because header redirect is not allowed (on the handset), or whether the xml document is not valid (which seems unlikely because this is a big company we are working with)

it works from a browser, that's how we know that this is not a code issue
if it is a header redirect issue (which i think it might be, as we have had to use include rather than redirect before), is there any way around that or is that something we will need to use a static link to work around

we're using php 5, apache 2, wml 1.1, the handset i was testing on was a nokia 6230 i think

thanks
dave

Hi,

Is $strRefreshSessionUrl a full url, eg: http://whatever ?

I was hunting around on the nokia developers forums and it appears that there seems to be a bit of an issue with redirect on some Nokia phones ?

yeah it should be
i think i got it working though to some degree
might have been a urlencode thing on the querystring
we'll have to see what works best
a header redirect or a static page with a link

that's the problem with phones, it's just really hard to know what the problem is sometimes
