The following syntax within your <form> ......</form> will work:

<input type="hidden" name="redirect"
value="http://www.yourpage.com/formsent.htm">

with formsent.htm being the name of the page to be displayed after the
submit button is pressed.

That _may_ work, it depends on whether the script handling the form
submission on the server is looking for a field called redirect in
order to do anything special. It certainly won't always work.
