Ah thank you! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!
The reason  I am redirecting is because it is a video blog and the non
flash version has a slightly different layout. I have setup a
robots.txt file not to index that page since some of the content is
duplicate.

Again thank you for that simple line of code that I could not find
since I was looking for redirectUrl in all my searches.
