使用AJAX在php中添加标头

Question

My question is simple, I'm using AJAX and i want to redirect the user to another page if the user fill up the registration form properly, however if the user failed to match his/her password. i want to show an error message.

here is my PHP code:

if (isset($_POST['password']) && isset($_POST['retype_password']))
{
  $password = $_POST['password'];
  $retype_password = $_POST['retype_password'];
  if(!empty($password) && !empty($retype_password))
  {
     if($password == $retype_password)
     {
       header("Location: anotherpage.php");
       exit();
     }
     else
     {
        echo 'password does not match';
     }
  }
}

here is my ajax:

var frm = $('#frm_register');
    frm.submit(function (e)
    {
        e.preventDefault();
         $.ajax({
            type: frm.attr('method'),
            url: frm.attr('action'),
            data: frm.serialize(),
            success: function (data) {
                $('#error').text(data);
            }
        });
        return false;
    });

The problem here is that it doesn't redirect to another page unless i refresh the page.

Instead of header("Location: anotherpage.php"); just do echo '1' and in your AJAX call, if data['responseText'] == '1' than just do a document.location.href = 'anotherpage.php'
