CGI variables are strictly read-only and can't be modified at
all.
If you can't use window.location = '<
http://www.newlocation.com>';,
you could try a redirector using a META redirect:
<meta http-equiv="refresh"
content="<2;url=http://webdesign.about.com>">
I'm not sure what the CGI variables will do, though, so you
should try
redirecting to your own page and cfdumping the cgi scope...
