If you can avoid sending any other MIME headers, Content-Type for instance all you have to do is print this...

Code:

#!/usr/bin/env python

print 'Location: http://www.python.org\n'

This will redirect the page to python.org using Python CGI

.

Hi Mark.
Thanks for your reply.
The situation is, that I have a login page that authenticates the user,
if the user is authenticated then :
1. An header with cookie ( sessionID ) is sent to the client
2. A redirect for a different page is required.
How can I achieve that ?
Cheers
Roy
