Instead of using the cfheader why not use Javscript to relocate the
window itself. I haven't got code here but if you go to
www.sitexperts.com there will be many JS solutions in here.

Subject: Web bugs, cookies and redirects...

Hi there,

I'm working on an app that uses a "web bug" (basically an <img> tag that
calls another site; that site serves an image). 

I'd need to redirect a visitor -after- the web bug has been served.
Since cookies are involved -as you may guess-, I don't use <cflocation>
but simply:

<CFHEADER NAME="Refresh" VALUE="0; URL='http://www.somebody.gov'"> 

Now, this works great but I can certainly notice a big delay when this
happens. Is there any way to speed up this redirection?

I have also seen that one could do:

<CFHEADER STATUSCODE="302" STATUSTEXT="Object Temporarily Moved">
<CFHEADER NAME="location" VALUE="#someURL#">

.which works great speedwise, but apparently the web bug is not served
:>(

Any comments, tips, ideas?

Thanks in advance,

Martin
