My understanding is that with codes 301,
302 and 303 the url is provided in the Location header rather than this one.
As Chris says, this is only a pseudo-standard header created by netscape which 
has been supported
by all the big browsers and unfortunately some sites rely on it.

As I said this should behave exactly the same as the meta refresh mechanism 
does apparently.
As for whether the html or http refresh header should be used if both are 
present,
I'd probably go with the html and display a warning if they differ.

Cheers,
