Thanks Sarah and Alex. I tried using different combinations of the Status 301
line and the 'put new header' command. It is the Status 301 line that makes
the difference. Using Sarah's example
put header "Status: 301 Moved Permanently"
put header "Location:" && tMobilePage
works equally well as
put new header "Status: 301 Moved Permanently"
put new header "Location:" && tMobilePage
So 'new' does not seem to make a difference here. Is there a
situation where the 'new' would be required?
Thanks again
Martin
