Get the end value of a redirected URL

[kmccormick2008]

How can I process this redirect URL to get "redirected value" end value using JavaScript?

Lets say this URL:
http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/website.com/;sect=;subs=;sz=115x77;ord=4771639

Redirected you to:

http://yahoo.com

How can I get the end value of the redirect, "

http://yahoo.com",

using JavaScript?

Something like this?:
var initValue = "

http://ad.doubleclick.net/ad/website.com/;sect=;subs=;sz=115x77;ord=4771639";

var newValue = ?? process(initValue); ?? // opens initValue URL and returns the redirect

document.write(newValue); //outputs "

http://yahoo.com

Do you have a record of what the url will redirect to?
You may have to use a bit of httprequest to get the redirect end point from the database that contains the translation.
