I think the problem is with the browser specs.  Using header( 'location: 
http://...com' ); cause the browser to receive a Error Code #302(?) and 
it will redirect to the new url that has been supplied but it's a 
temporary redirect. On refresh the browser will attempt the original 
url.  The method I use to fix this is:
echo '<script language="Javascript">location.href="http://...com"</script>';

There might be a better/proper way of re-directing the browser.
