/title/something should redirect to /node/1234 instead of displaying the node by itself [#15154]

Since users tend to link to what's in their URL bar, it would be desirable if the permanent (/node/something) URL was in the URL bar even if they arrived via a /title/something link. The attached patch fixes this.

This also fixes this bug.

I have been using drupal_goto() instead of head() (in drupal 4.6.3) as it recomends in drupaldocs.org:

It is advised to use drupal_goto() instead of PHP's header(), because drupal_goto() will append the user's session ID to the URI when PHP is compiled with "--enable-trans-sid".

The code will be as follows (starting in line 45):

else if (db_num_rows($result) == 1) {
  $node = db_fetch_object($result);
  //$node = node_load(array('nid' => $node->nid));
  //print theme('page', node_show($node, NULL), $node->title);
  drupal_goto("node/".$node->nid); //better take you to the page instead of loading the page ;-)
  }
