Thanks for that, I actually did try putting a CFABORT after the CFHEADERs, it wouldn't work at all without it. Funny thing is, CFLOCATION actually does change the URL in the browser. I've tried moving the CFHEADER to the very top of the Application.cfm file, still no dice. Anyway, its not a major issue, I might just have to leave it as a CFLOCATION. I might be able to hack something together using ISAPI rewrite if I'm bothered.

Also , try the CFLOCATION to see if the address changes correctly ( this is more of a debug thing than a solution ). If none of the above work, can you please let me know what code is being run before / after calling the CFHeader tag.

It tells the search engine that the resource requested has been moved temporarily. A 301 redirect tells a search engine that the resource has been moved permanently, so no longer look for it at the original URL. At least that's how I understand how it works.

If I bookmark it, its actually bookmarking the old URL. How can I do an SEO friendly redirect, and change the URL as well? thanks.
