Hi toedipper,

Why are you adding double-quotes around the $dllink variable?
Try: <? echo "<META HTTP-EQUIV=\"refresh\" CONTENT=\"6;
URL=http://$dllink\">"; ?>

Also have you tried using header():

header('Location: http://' . $dllink);

Make sure to not output anything to the browser before calling header().
