When you perform a Header redirect, you usually end the script anyway, and
even if there is stuff after that, it doesn't really matter, because the
redirect is handled client side, not server side, so as soon as the Header
is sent and the script ends (the place you are redirecting to doesn't
matter), it closes the connection, and as far as I know, it is true for all
database implementations (excluding the use of persistent connections,
which requires using the mysql_pconnect command or other similar command,
standard connects do not create persistent connections).
