Is there a reason for using represent to make redirection links? You may have an easier time creating redirection links with the A() helper:
http://web2py.com/book/default/chapter/05?search=redirect Apparently there is a new callback feature to the A helper which might be helpful in your situation. I couldn't tell you what's wrong without seeing more code. Wish I could help more but one of the gurus will have a better "Why is this so?" than I.
