Ah, I see - the redirect is happening correctly, but IE is not putting the
port number into the Host: header. All is clear. IE bug - should've guessed
:)

Actually, is it a bug, strictly speaking? Time to have a look throught the
rfc's...

Thanks for the detective work, Oliver. Setting up proxying is a little OTT
for a personal web site, so I'll just stick to my current frames trick, I
think...

Thanks for your help,
