Got it working - thanks heaps everyone :-)
Out of interest - here's my current redirect.php...
<?php
if ($HTTP_GET_VARS['fred'] != "") {
# $statement = "UPDATE links SET hits=hits+1 WHERE href=\"$u\"";
# mysql_query($statement);
$fred = $HTTP_GET_VARS['fred'];
header("Location: $fred");
exit;
} else {
header("Location: $HTTP_REFERRER");
exit;
}
?>
and the updated referring code...
<a href="redirect.php?fred=http://www.fusion.org.au">test link</a>
Whew! Now to work on the hits counter bit...

I noticed that you were passing the URL like this (from an earlier
message):
> > <a href="redirect.php?fred=www.fusion.org.au">test link</a>
if you put this in Location: without prefixing it with "http://" it may be
treated as a local url or something that is not what you intend. I don't
think it is what is causing this specific error, but it could be the next
one :-))).
