Oh... I see what you're getting at. Sorry for the confusion.

That *is* a good argument for a redirect.  Unfortunately, (IIRC) some
browsers complain about being redirected on a POST.  

If you want to accomplish the same thing without using a redirect, you
could return an intermediate "changes accepted" screen that does an
HTTP-EQUIV refresh to your form after 1 or 2 seconds.
