PHP automatic redirect after log in instead of CLICK HERE

Question

how can i redirect automatically after log in, instead of click "CLICK HERE"

   if (isset($_POST['user']))
   {
      $user = sanitizeString($_POST['user']);
      $pass = sanitizeString($_POST['pass']);

      if ($user == "" || $pass == "")
      {
         $error = "Not all fields were entered <br />";
      }
      else
      {
          $query = "SELECT user,pass FROM vbmembers
                Where user='$user' AND pass='$pass'";

          if (mysql_num_rows(queryMysql($query)) == 0)
          {
              $error = "Username/Password invalid<br />";
          }
          else
          {
              $_SESSION['user'] = $user;
              $_SESSION['pass'] = $pass;
              die ("You are logged in. Please
                <a href='vbmembers.php?view=$user'>Click here</a>.");
          }
      }
   }  
}

What's the question?? It's pure code! – Can O' Spam Nov 12 '15 at 10:57 — Can O' Spam, Nov 12 '15 at 10:57

Use PHP header

header('Location: http://example.com/vbmembers.php?view=' . $user);

Replace this

die ("You are logged in. Please
            <a href='vbmembers.php?view=$user'>Click here</a>.");

Edited my post. Please check. – Samir Selia Nov 12 '15 at 11:06
@Vano, it will redirect automatically. That's how `header` works. Remove the `die` function and add `header` code snippet from my post. – Samir Selia Nov 12 '15 at 11:09
thank you very much Samir. Worked fine. – Vano Nov 12 '15 at 11:11
