 There is this nasty bug in IE 5 for Windows prior to service pack 2,
 described  in Microsoft knowledgebase article Q281197 which causes a
 problem with  redirecting.. if you submit a POST form to a page that
 uses header() to redirect  to another page after processing the form
 data, then IE will not display some of  the images on the page, if the
 user has an external HTTP namespace handler  (RealDownload for
 example) installed. It took me a very long time to figure this  out; I
 had no idea why my ads weren't displaying on IE for windows but worked
 fine everywhere else.

Instead of outputting a header to redirect the browser would it be safer to
use the meta-refresh tag?

The reason I ask is because I heard that some versions of IE have trouble
with the header

There are probable even more browsers that can't handle the META tag...

Which versions of IE is somebody claiming can't handle a Location: header?

Cuz, like, even IE *CAN'T* be that broken, can it?

And it's not version 4 (I'm assuming not 5(.5) either)

When you say version 4, which version 4 do you mean? Ditto for version 5. With 
so many patches and 'upgrades' issued for IE I won't surprised if there is 
some combination which causes Location: header to fail.
