When your PHP script does "curl" it does not interact in any way,
shape, or form with the Location bar of the browser...
That's kinda the whole POINT of curl, to be able to snarf down content
from inside your script, instead of pushing the user off to some other
site.
If you just want to send the user off to Google's site, you can skip
curl and use:
header("Location: http://google.com/";);
