(IMO, YMMV, etc.) this much i agree w/ and i would say to extend upon it that using multiple redirection mechanisms in a chain is also a bad idea. eg. header(location: ) to some page. that page uses a meta tag to do a redirect to somewhere else. ive had to deal w/ this stuff and ended up stripping out all of those stupid meta tag redirects, as well as many of the header redirects on the server. -nathan
