CGI problem

[Altera_Forum]

Hello: 

  I am testing a CGI program using C language and Shell under the Nios2 Linux system.  What I want is to implement the "Redirection" function to redirect user's browser to a website:  for exmaple "www.google.com".    My approach is to print the "Location: URL" header to user's browser.  What I did is like this, I wrote a C program that is doing simple I/O access,and contains the last line:  printf("Location: http://www.google.com\n\n"); (http://www.google.com\n\n&quot%3b%29;)   I also wrote a shell scirpt which was:  # !/bin/sh  echo "Location: http://www.google.com" (http://www.google.com")  echo ""    Finally,I put them into the proper place and tried to link them using IE.  Both execution turned out successful(I/O result was correct),but they did't bring me to google!   After the execution,both of them only took me to the previous folder.  (i.e. from http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/test.cgi (http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/test.cgi) to http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/ (http://192.168.1.1/cgi-bin/) )   Can anyone please tell me what's the problem!?  Thank you so much.    Best Regards.

Two other questions: 

 (1) What happens if you go to it manually, e.g.  telnet host 80 GET /cgi-bin/test.cgi HTTP/1.1 Host: hostname   (2) What happens if you use some other browser, such as Firefox?
