querystring problem after using header("Location:xxx")

On "page1.php?aaa=1" I do a redirect to remove the variables in the
querystring that I don't need anymore:

header("Location: page1.php?bbb=1") ;
exit() ;

This works, after the redirection $_GET["bbb"] really exists.
BUT my browser still display "page1.php?aaa=1" as the URL!!!! I want it to
show the new URL "page1.php?bbb=1"!

I tested this with Firefox 0.9.3 and IE6.

I have to do this redirection after a "back" from the browser, if it can
help.


Thanks for the help guys

I've just tested and both Mozilla 1.7.2 and Explorer 6 change the location
bar. Do you surf through a proxy or something like that?

No proxy.

The problem is when I test with really simple pages, it works. The location
bar changes.

But with some of my pages it doesn't. The location bar stays the same.

I guess I should try to find out what is different in some of my pages that
makes them react that way..

Thanks for your help anyway

Weird. Well, you know, some ISPs have transparent proxies for web browsing.
Maybe it's the proxy itself the one that asks for the redirected page so
the browser actually never knows about it... God knows :)
