Then a server-side redirect is not actually occuring. There are two types
of redirects:
1) server-side, which use the 3xx range of response codes (except for 304)
and sends a "Location" reply header to specify where the redirect is going.
2) client-side, which uses browser scripting or an HTML <meta> tag
The OnRedirect event is only triggered for #1. TIdHTTP has no handling for
#2 at all (since it doesn't process the contents of the requested data at
all).

Then I suggest you use a packet sniffer to look at the actual
request/response packets to see what is different between each request.
