Re: [Q] Howto go directly to a URL?

Thanks for the quick response, everyone, but I was hoping for something other than redirect()/header(). As I understand them, these services require the complete URL and I'm simply dispatching to another page within my web site (in fact, within the same directory) i.e., I'm looking to use a path-relative URL.
