add.cgi error... Sometimes.

add.cgi error... Sometimes.
Hi,
Im having this odd problem. When adding a link by using the add.cgi the page that should come up "add success" doesnt come up. BUT, here is the thing. The link does get added for validation, emails are sent, and everything works fine. But I dont get the "add success" page. I just get the blank IE page saying it found an error or time out. So everything works, but it doesnt really. Whats happening is that I get several copies of the same link, since the person thinks the submission is not going through. Im still checking this script out, but I know its doing everything fine. With that exception.
But then, I have gotten the page once or twice. So now what? What do you think is wrong?
Thanks for your time,
Juan

Ah... figured out my own problem. I'll post it here in case anyone else has this issue...

The problem was I changed "add.cgi" to "addit.cgi" to combat spammers.
BUT I failed to make the ADD A LINK form post to "addit.cgi" instead of "add.cgi".

I changed templates/add.html to reflect the new cgi name and all is well.
