in reply to Trying to redirect...

You may want to look at this node: CGI and redirect.. I believe it will most likely answer your question. If not, please be more specific (i.e. post your code?).

    Yeah, i tried that alredy..

    here's the code where the problem is (assume all varibles exist, i have checked they do.) 
    if ($query->param('loc') eq '2')
{
print $query->redirect("$productDL2")
}else{
print $query->redirect("$productDL1")
}

    Also, i dont print anything before this, and i seem to be getting redirected back to the cgi (when i access it, IE pops up a little "the attempt to load 'accessing URL: http://mycgi'slocation' failed" error

      I don't think you quite read that last node..you may want to try what jjhorner suggested. I believe that comatose explains it, "Redirect is for telling a browser that the site it was looking for has moved. Location is for redirects as most people think of them.".. you need to use location and not redirect.
