Shouldn't be a problem if you change it to:
<?php
session_start();
$_SESSION['somevar']="anything";
session_write_close();
header("location:url");
?>
I generally wrap redirection in a function, that way any shutdown
routines can be performed transparently -- and also the URL can be
reworked from relative to absolute.
