Page Redirecting

I have a page that enrolls clients in programs which is supposed to redirect to a page that lets the client pick a consultant. However, instead of redirecting to the correct page, it redirects from the page it just came from. It does this even if I take out all of the cflocations. I thought that if I took out all the cflocations it would just do whatever inserts, etc. are necessary then not go anywhere, and I could just look at debugging output. The program in question DOES return events from GrabEventData and therefore should go to ConsultantSelection.cfm, instead it is going back to DealerManager.cfm, even if I take out all references to DealerManager (either comment out or delete entirely).

I've only posted code that should happen when a program is selected, the rest of the code on the page is the form to select the program.

Any ideas? Thanks!

    I had to change

    <cfif find(selectProgram,program_list)>
    <cflocation url="dgim/enroll_dgim.cfm?selectProgram=#selectProgram#&enrollment=#enrollment#&selectDealer=#selectDealer#&signer=#replace(signer,' ','_','ALL')#">
    </cfif>

    to

    <cfloop query="dgim_program">
    <cfif selectProgram EQ id>
    <cflocation url="dgim/enroll_dgim.cfm?selectProgram=#selectProgram#&enrollment=#enrollment#&selectDealer=#selectDealer#&signer=#replace(signer,' ','_','ALL')#">
    <cfbreak>
    </cfif>
    </cfloop>

    because it was checking for '3' in a list, not 3.

    Bad news, I changed ALL of the code I posted to:
    <cfif selectProgram EQ 3>
    SDS
    <cfelseif selectProgram EQ 42>
    1tlb
    <cfelse>
    dgim
    </cfif>

    And I still get the same response. I'm pretty sure the code is actually updating on the server because when testing (the originally posted code) I changed the user_id from #session.user_id# to 6666666 and it showed up correctly in the database.

    When I get unexpected results with if/else logic, I troubleshoot it like this:

    <cfif x is 1>
    true <br />
    <cfdump var = "#x#">
    <cfabort>
    <cfelse>
    false
    <cfdump var = "#x#">
    <cfabort>
    </cfif>
