i do send headers and i see the refresh happening...
the refresh is just to a normal html page...that also has
the whole Content type: at the top... as i said before..
it works just fine with mozilla or firebird or galeon...just
not IE. I have to go now....but i will post more code when
i get back...
Thanks for the help,
jd
