 to wrong URL.  In my case, I"m trying to the user to send the user is  submitted, drupal_goto is sent to a I need to send the user to set $form["destination"] via hook_form_alter.  When the form is an external URL after the form submit.  My approach  is called.  In drupal_goto, my destination gets badly  munged and  [development] drupal_goto an external destination  But the user gets sent  instead to  [development] drupal_goto an external destination  drupal_goto.  It looks like this:    if (isset($_REQUEST['destination'])) {     extract(parse_url(urldecode($_REQUEST['destination'])));   }   else if (isset($_REQUEST['edit']['destination'])) {     extract(parse_url(urldecode($_REQUEST['edit']['destination'])));   }    $url =x($path, $query, $fragment, TRUE);  The use of the URL are dropped.  Is there even a workaround for me without patching core?  Thanks,  -Dave of reason why parse_url is there a The reason for this is used here?  Why not something closer  to:  if (isset($_REQUEST['destination']))    $url =x($_REQUEST['destination']) else    ...  And is at the code nearly impossible to understand, unless  you find perl intuitive, but I digress...    During extract() $path, $query, and $fragment all get set.  So does $scheme,  $host, $user and $pass.  But drupal_goto does nothing with the start of extract() makes the latter  variables, and in my case important parts
