Must be fully qualified with protocol, host, and anything extra, so yes, http://hostname/extra/ is needed. See section 14.30 of RFC 2616 (HTTP 1.1) or section 10.11 of RFC 1945 (HTTP 1.0). The Location response-header field defines the exact location of the resource that was identified by the Request-URI. For 3xx responses, the location must indicate the server's preferred URL for automatic redirection to the resource. Only one absolute URL is allowed. Location = "Location" ":" absoluteURI An example is Location: http://www.w3.org/hypertext/WWW/NewLocation.html -dan -- Dan Lowe <dan@tangledhelix.com> http://tangledhelix.com/ What happens if you get scared half to death twice?
