Hmm.. interesting. I never use a full URI unless I am directing to a secure server and things always work on my end. Works either way I guess?

You can usually use $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'], $_SERVER['PHP_SELF'] and dirname() to make an absolute URI from a relative one yourself. I use header() for redirects all the time as well and have always made a habit of using a fully qualified URI just because the docs said so. Never tried any other way so I've never had any problems with it. Hope this helps.
