A redirect means sending a Location: header to the client, which then makes
the browser follow to that URL.

That's because you request the page from paypal and display it. curl does no
link conversions. If you really want to do it like this, you need to translate
all links in the downloaded HTML to point to the absolute ones on paypal
instead.
