Sending multiple values in header() function with GET method

Question

my question is about the header() function. I'm trying to send 2 variables trough this function like this:

header("Location:index.php?variable_1='true'&variable_2='false'");

I think its the problem in escaping & but i tried it just with &. Also, first variable gets initialized and I can acquire it by calling$_GET['variable_1']` but the second one is none existent and is not initialized.

So my question is, can I send more than one value trough header() function via GET method?

Thank you for your time!

You don't need to do foo='bar'&bar='baz'. Lose the quotes, so foo=bar&bar=baz. They're not needed and will only cause unnecessary complications. — mishmash

im sorry. i was misunderstood. i can only pass one variable with this call header("Location:index.php?value1=false&value2=true"); The value1 variable is initialized but value2 is not. I cant access it with & or with & but the first one i can.

when you redirected to new address is this the address when yo redirected?please look in address bar index.php?variable_1=true&variable_2=false
