PayPal Express Checkout - Redirect URL

I want to set up a recurring payment with PayPal. But when I want to redirect the user to:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi?bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&token=<value_returned_by_SetExpressCheckoutResponse>

I end up at the PayPal.com page, though the correct url is set.

What am I doing wrong?

Looks like there's an error in the PayPal documentation at Integrating Recurring Payments. At 'Redirecting the Buyer to PayPal' there url is:

https://www.paypal.com/cgi?bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&token=<value_returned_by_SetExpressCheckoutResponse>

When it should be:

    https://www.paypal.com/cgi-bin/webscr?cmd=_express-checkout&token=<value_returned_by_SetExpressCheckoutResponse>

Thanks to Jensen Ching for pointing this out.
