Me too, I can't think of a valid reason to use a Location header while
having output also as the user will only have about .00000002 seconds to
read the output before being redirected.
if ($foo == 'example') { // I'm not output
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
exit;
}
is perfectly valid. Now, why would someone need to do :
if ($foo == 'example') {
echo 'Hope you find example.com pleasing, have fun!';
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
exit;
}
If such an announcement is needed, using html Meta Refresh tag works as
one can also implement the delay (some of our users are slow readers :).
Also, headers_sent() can be useful. I'd personally avoid output buffering
for this.
