Read the Zope online help docs and find the RESPONSE object's methods::

context.request.response.redirect(URL)

If it's a Zope object in the same instance, you can do::

folder.post_method(TRUE=1)

where 'folder' is the container of that method. (If the method is in the 
acquisition path, this is 'context'.) Otherwise, you're need to use the 
Python urllib[2] in an ExternalMethod.
