Carlos:

Yep -- you the man. I finally figured this out, but you're the first
person that saw it too. 

Was hard to see when it was deeply buried in my application. Lesson
learned -- Cliff, don't call an http/https redirect function twice with
varying conditions you really know what your doing! Translation -- be
careful with that BASIC-style goto code.

Thanks,
Cliff

P.S. But all is not lost. I picked up a new word. I'll try it tonight --
"Hun, you borked the lasagna again."

Subject: Re: [nycphp-talk] Help -- header redirection problem

Without running it, I'd say this script makes an infinite loop. When the
redirect is sent, isn't the else being executed again?
