I just discovered that I’m still receiving an email EVEN when there is an error (reg_add_fail.php). Is it possible to stop the script from emailing me IF the client is directed to reg_add_fail.php? Confused…
I simplified the script to condense.
Many thanks.
Erik

exit(); // as sugested by John Conde

Put
exit()after the redirectJust because you call
header()doesn’t mean the script stops executing immediately. Callingexit()will.
