If you are using a CGI script in the "ACTION=" of your form, probably the
best way is to have the script return the following (and the following
text only):

Location: http://www.some.other.webpage.com
<blank line>

Again, other headers (such as the usual "Content-type: text/html"), etc.
are not used in this case.

Hope this helps.
