I'm not sure what you are trying to do here and the URL looks strange.
If you want your cgi to reload you can skip the "URL"-part. 
If you want your cgi to display for a while and then reload another cgi
I
recommend you to do it in the http header. Add line:

Refresh: 5; URL=newcgi.cgi

If you write in perl and don't use CGI.pm, reconsider. The CGI.pm 
makes this easy and the documentation is actually very useful.
