[geeklog-users] com_Refresh

I need to ask about the reasoning behind this:

function COM_refresh( $url )
{
     return "<html><head><meta http-equiv=\"refresh\" content=\"0; 
URL=$url\"></head></html>\n";
}

This is broken in my site for reasons I don't yet understand.  One 
possible fix is to use the HTTP Location: header, but that brings up 
the issue of why you guys didn't do that in the first place.  My guess 
is that the Location: header led to bugs that I don't know about...  
Yes?
