I spent a while on this topic, this is how I would do it...

        function do_redirect ( $url )
        {
                Header ( "Location: $url" );
                DocHeader("Redirect"); ?>
<TABLE WIDTH="80%" BORDER="0" ALIGN="CENTER" BGCOLOR="#FFFFCC">
  <TR>
    <TD>
      <p align="center">Your browser does not support redirection links -
but
        do not worry, that is not a problem. You would have been
automatically
        redirected to a new page (<A HREF="<?php echo $url;?>">
        <?php echo $url;?>
        </A>) if it had, please proceed to this distination manually by
clicking
        the link!</p>
    </TD>
  </TR>
</TABLE>

<?php
        DocFooter();
        }

DocHeader and DocFooter are functions that layout the page so the style
matches the rest of your site. This procedure has the advantage of working
on old browsers first....
