PHP redirect

How can I conditionally redirect the page with PHP?

Like...

If($redirect)
//do redirect
else
//no redirect

Thanks if you help.

PHP Code:


header("location:site.com");

make sure whatever forwarding you're doing is being done at the very begining of the page, other wise it wouldn't work
