title: Issue with Redirect not functioning in Rail 2
body: <p>I have this redirection in the middle of my controller so if something isn't there, it will redirect you to a new area of the site if needed. Here is the problem. It is just ignoring the redirect in the code. It looks like this.</p>
  
  <pre><code>if conditions
    redirect_to "/new/address"
  end
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I can't even figure out why it won't redirect, but I know it makes it into the conditional and literally just ignores the redirect. What am I missing here!?</p>
  
  <p>I am using Rails 2 and Ruby 1.8</p>
