php guys -- database query, help!
 

On my "add user" page I need a query that will check if the login supplied already exists and if it does I need the user to be redirected to signup.php?name=1.

I am going on 40 something hours of no sleep, and I need to get this done, help is very much appreciated. And needed. Thanks a ton to whoever can help!!

thats almost exactly what i have, but does the same thing. no go.

it just goes through the rest of the actions as if the header redirect doesn't fucking exist.

You should exit your code as well (immediately after the header statement):

Do you have that? In addition, the header function will not work if you have already sent text to stdout.

$DBH = mysql_connect( ... );
mysql_select_db( 'database', $DBH );
$sql = "SELECT username FROM table WHERE username = 'foo'";
$query_result = mysql_query( $sql, $DBH );

if ( mysql_num_rows( $query_result ) hahahaha 1 )
{
header( "Location: http://" . $_SERVER[ 'HTTP_HOST' ] . "/signup.php?name=1" );
exit();
}

I have no idea why I didn't exit my code, I write beautiful code, must be time to catch up on that sleep. Thanks a ton guys, you're fucking great.
