Can anyone please help with how to pass a variable to another php page?

I have a link on my landing page that links to clickbank.

All of my landing pages have

<?php $seedvar=$_GET['id'];?>

Code (markup):

at the top of the page.

"id" is a 4 digit number

This is my link:

http://myid.vendorid.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=<?php echo $seedvar;?>

Code (markup):

So I click the link and the "tid" value is passed all the way to clickbank.

This works well.

But I do not want my page to link directly to clickbank. I want to go through a php redirect: links/index.php

This redirect: links/index.php contains

<?php header("Location: http://myid.vendorid.hop.clickbank.net?tid=<?php echo $seedvar;?>");?>

Code (markup):

So when I click on links/index.php from my referring page I would have thought that the "tid" value is just passed along but it is not.

I'm not too hot on php so can anyone see where I have gone wrong and how I should do it?

Thanks

 

You can not write php tag with in php tag

Just use like this,

<?php header("Location: your site here ?tid= $seedvar ");?>

 

Thank for your reply, I tried what you suggested.

On my php landing page I have a coded link

<a href="http://domain/index.php?tid=<?php echo $seedvar;?>">Test</a>

Code (markup):

That generates this link in the browser:

<a href="http://domain/index.php?tid=test555">Test</a>

Code (markup):

Contents of: http://domain/link/index.php are:

<?php 
header("Location: http://myid.vendorid.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=$seedvar");
?>

Code (markup):

And it still does not pass the data over.

I feel something is not quite right, I just can't see it.

Could you advise again please?

Thank you

 

did you try getting the value?
i mean $_GET[]??

 

My landing page link:

<a href="http://domain/link/index.php?tid=$seedvar">Test</a>

Code (markup):

Which displays data in footer as I have

<?php echo $seedvar;?>

Code (markup):

in the footer.

I just tried this in my http://domain/link/index.php redirect

<?php 
$seedvar=$_GET['tid'];
header("Location: http://myid.vendor.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=$seedvar");
?>

Code (markup):

Still not passing the data.

 

I just tried it this way too:

<?php 
$tid=$_GET['seedvar'];
header("Location: http://myid.vendor.hop.clickbank.net/?tid=$seedvar");
?>

Code (markup):

Still no data

 

It's cool I got it fixed.

I put this on the landing page

<a href="http://domain/links/index.php?tid=<?php echo $seedvar;?>">Test</a>

Code (markup):

And this in the redirect:

header("Location: http://myid.vendor.hop.clickbank.net?tid=".$_GET['tid']);
exit(); 

Code (markup):

And it worked

Thank you for all your help, much appreciated.

Regards
