php version of java : self.location.replace("www.url.com"); ??

| Hi,
inside html, before <head>, you can put something like this :
<script type="text/javascript">
self.location.replace(www.url.com/newpage.htm);
</script>
which basically instructs the browser to start loading another page asap
(www.url.com/newpage.htm);
This has some limitations, especially when the user has restricted use of
java etc.
Is there a way to do this in PHP ?
like, if there is a link to link.php, this page then starts loading
www.url.com/newpage.htm instead ?

| Thanks for the java vs javascript correction.
What do you mean before any output ?
Do you mean before any html is echoed or printed ?
I mean, I can still do php internal scripting before I call header() ...
right ?

It work but one more question,
because in the end the user's browser is responsible for loading the new
page, is this guaranteed to work with all browsers ?
Or so some browsers get stuck at this point ?
