Xitami doesn't understand as wide a range of server-side redirects as
some other webbrowser seem to understand; it understands only a full
absolute path (as a server side redirect), and a full URL (as a client
side redirect).

You can try:

Header("Location: /somepage.php")

if the page is in the root of that virtual host.  Otherwise XiFusion
provides a bridge between what many PHP scripts output and what Xitami
expects.
