Question

Why does this js-php generated location reference does not work in IE8?

<script>
<?php
    session_start();
        $_SESSION['admintermorol']=false;
        echo "window.location='".$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']."';";
?>
</script>

I’m not sure, but you could do this with pure php, replace

echo "window.location='".$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']."';"; 

with

exit(header("Location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}\r\n"));

Sorry, that’s slightly wrong

Move the code to the top of the page (not inside the script tag)

<?php
session_start();
if ( !isset($_SESSION['admintermorol']))
{
    exit(header("Location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}\r\n"));
}
?>

Or (now I know) you can do this 🙂

<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['admintermorol'] = FALSE;
exit(header("Location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}\r\n"));
?>
