don't forget the rest of the url and don't forget to exit like matt

i suggest defining a constant somewhere and including it (a configuarion
file perhaps????):
define("WEB_ROOT", "http://myhappydomain.com/");
it can then be used like:
header("Location: ".WEB_ROOT."$url"); exit;
you can even take it one step further and make a function out of it.
function redirect($url)
{
header("Location: ".WEB_ROOT."$url);
exit;
}
use it thusly:
redirect($url);
hth,
