A php header redirect is also frowned upon by search engines. :D I would use either a temporary or permananet htaccess redirect.

 

Search engines cannot tell the difference between a php redirect and .htaccess redirect. They both occur serverside, and are both served up by the server as a header. On top of this, with php redirects, you can attach HTTP error code stating that it is a permanent, temporary, or other redirect, which the search engines DO like. So I have to politely disagree with you, and say that you are in fact wrong with that comment.
