How to keep all the POST information while redirecting in PHP?

Question

header(\'Location: \' . $uri);

This will miss all the $_POST information.

Answer 1

You could save the post data in the session, redirect, and then retrieve it back from the session.

session_start();
$_SESSION['POSTDATA'] = $_POST;
header('Location: ' . $uri);

Then in the PHP file for the new location, retrieve the post data like this:

$_POST = $_SESSION['POSTDATA'];
