Upon applying for a job, I was given a "tester". One of the questions was what does the php function ?header? do. I have not seen this syntax nor has it come up on any google search I've attempted. Could someone here please educate me on this item? Thanks

I have a mysql database with user input fields. Some of these varchar fields contain commas as part of the data. When I try to display these fields they are treated as arrays and display only the first "element". This occurs both with mysql_fetch_row() and mysql_fetch_array(). I'm chagrined I haven't …
