PHP 中 header()函数的作用是给客户端发送头信息。
什么是头信息？
这里只作简单解释，详细的自己看http协议。
在
HTTP协议中，服务器端的回答(response)内容包括两部分：头信息(header) 和
体内容，这里的头信息不是HTML中的<head></head>部分，同样，体内容也不是<BODY><
/BODY>。头信息是用户看不见的，里面包含了很多项，包括：服务器信息、日期、内容的长度等。而体内容就是整个HTML，也就是你所能看见的全
部东西。
头信息有什么用呢？
头信息的作用很多，最主要的有下面几个：
1、跳转：当浏览器接受到头信息中的 Location: xxxx 后，就会自动跳转到 xxxx 指向的URL地址，这点有点类似用 js 写跳转。但是这个跳转只有浏览器知道，不管体内容里有没有东西，用户都看不到。
2、指定网页的内容：
同样一个XML文件，如果头信息中指定：Content-type: application/xml
的话，浏览器会将其按照XML文件格式解析。但是，如果头信息中是：Content-type: text/xml
的话，浏览器就会将其看作存文本解析。（浏览器不是按照扩展名解析文件的）
3、附件：
不知道大家有没有注意，有些时候在一些网站下载东西，点下载连接以后，结果浏览器将这个附件当成网页打开
了，里面显示的都是乱码，这个问题也和头信息有关。有时候浏览器根据Content-type
来判断是打开还是保存，这样有时就会判断错误（主要是网站设计者忘记写Content-type）。其实，还有一个可以来指定该内容为附件、需要保存，这
个就是：Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="xxxxx"
在PHP中如何写？
1、跳转：
header("Location: http://www.phpec.org/");
2、指定内容：
header('Content-type: application/pdf');
3、附件：
// 指定内容为附件
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="downloaded.pdf"');
// 打开文件，并输出
readfile('original.pdf');
最
后要提醒大家注意一点，所有头信息都必须在体内容之前，如果一旦有任何输出了的话，header函数写的
头信息就没用了。比如，在文件最开头的<?php
处，如果前面有空格或者有空行，那header函数就没用了（其实可以通过设置：output_buffer来解决，anyway），为什么这样，可以看
看HTTP协议，很简单。
定义和用法
header() 函数向客户端发送原始的 HTTP 报头。
认识到一点很重要，即必须在任何实际的输出被发送之前调用 header() 函数（在 PHP 4 以及更高的版本中，您可以使用输出缓存来解决此问题）：
<html>
<?php
// 结果出错
// 在调用 header() 之前已存在输出
header('Location: http://www.example.com/');
?>
语法
header(string,replace,http_response_co
| 参数 | 描述 |
|---|---|
| string | 必需。规定要发送的报头字符串。 |
| replace |
可选。指示该报头是否替换之前的报头，或添加第二个报头。 默认是 true（替换）。false（允许相同类型的多个报头）。 |
| http_response_co |
可选。把 HTTP 响应代码强制为指定的值。（PHP 4 以及更高版本可用） |
提示和注释
注释：从 PHP 4.4 之后，该函数防止一次发送多个报头。这是对头部注入攻击的保护措施。
例子
例子 1
<?php
// Date in the past
header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT");
header("Cache-Control: no-cache");
header("Pragma: no-cache");
?>
<html>
<body>
...
...
注释：用户可能会设置一些选项来更改浏览器的默认缓存设置。通过发送上面的报头，您可以覆盖任何这些设置，强制浏览器不进行缓存！
例子 2
提示用户保存一个生成的 PDF 文件（Content-Disposition 报头用于提供一个推荐的文件名，并强制浏览器显示保存对话框）：
<?php
header("Content-type:application/pdf");
// 文件将被称为 downloaded.pdf
header("Content-Disposition:attachment;filename='downloaded.pdf'");
// PDF 源在 original.pdf 中
readfile("original.pdf");
?>
<html>
<body>
<?php
header('Content-type: application/image/pjpeg');//输出的类型
header('Content-Disposition: attachment; filename="downloaded.jpg"'); //下载显示的名字,注意格式
readfile('my.jpg');
// 并将这个文件以前面header发送信息设定的类型输出,从而会弹出一个下载框
// 就是把服务器上的my.jpg下载下来,下载显示和保存的名字默认是downloaded.jpg
?> 附带文档类型及服务器响应类别
一共两个版本.
文档类型 和 服务器响应HTTP的类型
上面的这个可以在上传文件的类型中对应上.下面的差了点.(原文下面的是用来写在文件头上的.来确定该文件是什么类型.)
