;) you're right. meanwhile i found out that it seems to have something
to do with proxies.
forwarding is a term that i borrowed from the JSP concept - which i'm
currently trying to implement in perl. it means nearly the same as
redirect, but without telling the client. (as far as i've understood it
do far. maybe it's just luxury and i'm going to leave it out.)
thank you both for your clues and guesses. i think the best idea will
lie in informing the programmer that there has been some sort of an
'event' while processing the page - and leave the uncomfortable decision
what do to with this 'event' up to him...
... whistling ... :)
