Redirecting to other page using php via URL

Question

Here's my php code

 <?php
    $s = $_POST['s'];
    header("Location: " . $s);
    exit();
    ?>

Is it possible to execute this code using a url? I tried mywebsite.com/code.php?s=www.google.com

but it doesn't redirect me to google.

Answer 1

Any variables on the querystring of a URL are accessible via $_GET . ( $_POST can be used to access form fields in the body of a request.)

Therefore

$s = $_GET['s'];

should work for you.
