Eg: Grant> Location: /images/item1.gif If that's coming out from a CGI or Apache::Registry script, the browser never sees it, because it's handled as an internal redirect. That can be messy if it's an HTML page with relative links, as the browser will fetch the links relative to the *old* URL, not the new URL. It's also messy if you meant to keep that URL private, but something breaks as a result, and the URL gets publicized in an error message. Now, you may be talking about a response header that's not related to CGI or Apache::Registry, in which case this doesn't apply. -- Randal L.
