Don't suggest using raw transactions, it is dangerous to do so!

cdecker's suggested use of the raw transaction api is very safe. Creating raw transactions yourself is where you need to be very careful.

My Satoshi client said today that is still unconfirmed. But when I search blockchain.info for the id of the transaction, it says that the transaction was sent today (>12 hours after I made it).

Is there any way, if a transaction isn't relayed, to force the satoshi client to send it another time (the same transaction).

No worry through as your client attempts to resend unconfirmed transactions at regular intervals.

To force a resend you can use [getrawtransaction](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions#getrawtransaction_.3Ctxid.3E_.5Bverbose.3D0.5D) and [sendrawtransaction](https://en.bitcoin.it/wiki/Raw_Transactions#sendrawtransaction_.3Chex_string.3E) of the JSON-API. That worked for me a few times.
