A bit off topic, but I was taught to always structure your code so that execution terminates by falling out the bottom of you routines (i.e. no early exit points). For one, it makes more logical sense in execution flow and is typically easier to maintain. So if you have any clean-up code at the end that needs to execute every time, early exits will bypasses that. By doing it that way, whenever I issue a redirect statement, there's not further code to execute...it falls out the bottom, and there's no need for an exit() call.
Am I missing something? I'm first a VB programmer so what do I know :). Although my advice is good advice in that environment, I may be wrong in server-side scripting and web programming.
