I changed the redirects from just the file or folder name: RESPONSE.redirect('/Allen/menu') And added the full server name. Works fine in Netscape now. Thanks!! I was going to add like this: RESPONSE.redirect(SERVER_NAME+'/Allen/menu') Then I don't have to change things when moving from development to production. But, it give the real name of the computer server and not the Zope domain name. Any ideas there? Or just leave it alone? Its not used in but a handful of places. Zope Find works great for tracking the locations too, so its not really a big deal. Thanks to all for the tips.

Don't ask me why but people in the community keep repeating that you should pass a full url to the redirect() method. Do instead: RESPONSE.redirect('http://www.guugle.com/Allen/menu') ...or... RESPONSE.redirect(menu.absolute_url())
This is because HTTP specifies that Location must give an absolute URI (<http://www.w3.org/Protocols/rfc2616/rfc2616-sec14.html#sec14.30>), and redirect uses a 302 response and the Location field.
Can you not use the absolute_url() method? It takes SiteRoots into account which no other good solution does. If you have access too "Allen" in the aquisition path, you should definitly use abolsute_url() RESPONSE.redirect(Allen.menu.absolute_url())

RESPONSE.redirect(Allen.menu.absolute_url()) I heavily use acquisition to access pages (e.g. to add language context). "absolute_url" breaks with this usage, as it is based on physical paths and the access paths. I use the "URLi" request variables whenever I need to construct absolute URLs.
