Here's an example of a redirect - not the same site that I'm using,
but you can see what happens here.

When I type in http://my.opera.com, I am redirected to http://my.opera.com/community

Then when I click on a link, I go to a page that includes "community"
in the url - http://my.opera.com/community/blog/2007/08/17/member-of-the-week


I need to get from my.opera.com to the last url, but if the word
"community" was actually a changing session ID, then I would need to
check for that each time prior to getting to the page I really want,
member-of-the-week.

Does that make sense?
