This code scriptlet will allow for redirection to dynamically relocate
to another URL. However, for some bizarre reason, it will not redirect
anywhere; it just dies (no warnings, no errors, no notices, no
nothing!), however, if you refresh your browser, the redirected page
appears, sometimes after 1, 2, 3 tries. Then sometimes it redirects
with no problems at all.

I tried closing my browser, logging out, refreshing everything,
deleting cache/history.. to no avail.

This only started occurring the moment I used my SessionHandler class
to relocate session files elsewhere due to a business requirement - the
moment I removed SessionHandler, this redirection weirdness occurred
and no amount of debugging seems to be able to solve the problem.

Ideas? Help?
