Troy, I've seen the same thing when redirecting webpages. Some versions of Netscape have a problem when the content parameter is wrapped.
This works: <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url=<@cgi><@appfilepath>mainmenu.taf?<userreferenceargument>"> but this doesn't <meta http-equiv="refresh" content="0;url= <@cgi><@appfilepath>mainmenu.taf?<userreferenceargument>"> Actually, I'm not sure where it breaks, but I make sure my content parameter is all on one line. So far, so good. Hopefully Robert's problem has got an easy solution like this.

I have seen line wrapping in an image tag mess up the spacing.
