You can't output anything to the screen before redirecting.

Remove all your echo'es and print_r's and you should be fine.

EDIT:

Also as @jhonraymos mentioned, be sure to use header() properly. Maybe you changed this to hide your actual page you're redirecting to. Either add a local file with correct path definitions or if redirecting to an other domain, you need to define the full url. See Uniform resource locator if in doubt.

Another EDIT:

I see you updated your question. Stop trying indian magic, such as

if ($success){
    print "";

Just accept the fact not to output ANYTHING to the screen before headers() and your soul is safe forever. This is not the place to mix http-meta in. PHP can do this just fine.

This might sound as a limitation first, but believe me, it isn't. It's a blessing.
