Unless you specify an absolute URL for the Location header, Apache will do
an internal redirect (i.e., it won't send a redirect to the browser, it will
just recognize that you're trying to redirect them, and just transfer the
request to the new page).
so do:
print "$mycookie\n";
print "Location:
http://www.yourhost.com/scripts/visitorinfo.cgi?pageid=mailhdr&lang=EN\n
\n"
by the way - when doing a 302 redirect, it is not necessary to do a
Content-type header.

Subject: Re: Wierd problem with redirect
Hello,
Thanks for the suggestion. However, I have a problem still left out.
The redirection is loading the redirected page properly. But, it still
shows
the URL as the same from where it is redirected.
As below:
My form calls the script
"/scripts/visitorinfo.cgi?pageid=delmail&lang=EN&adno=1".
In visitorinfo,.cgi, I have following steps
print "Content-type: text/html\n";
print "$mycookie\n";
print "Location:
/scripts/visitorinfo.cgi?pageid=mailhdr&lang=EN\n\n";
exit;
It really goes to the page mailhdr with appropriate details. But the
address
in the browser is still
"/scripts/visitorinfo.cgi?pageid=delmail&lang=EN&adno=1".
This gives a problem. If the user reloads the page, it will again try to do
what I am doing in this, which I don't want to happen.
How do I make the address (URL) to change according to the page it is
showing.
Thanks for the help
