Ahhh, cheers Jochem. Then the problem is the client resolving the url's.
Well I'd taken it for granted that the url's in the db were all fully
qualified, i.e. including http:// etc as Mike had suggested, but it's
starting to sound like Mike is correct, unless the client machine is having
extraneous networking problems (more unlikely).

cflocation sends an HTTP 302 "Found" statuscode to the browser together
with a header with the new location (see RFC 2616 or the list archive
for past discussions). Effectively, it is nothing but:
<cfheader statuscode="302">
<cfheader name="location" value="<fully qualified URL>">
