Oh, I actually *used* your form now I understand! Your "limit" is
your buffer size. You can't issue header information once your
response has already been sent.
You should be checking for the POST and sending a redirect before you
start sending HTML ideally.
All that HTML you have before your redirect is actually getting
written to the response, once you reach a certain limit, the output
will be flushed (sent to the client). After this point, your headers
cannot be modified.
