The problem with this is you can't post the form on a header redirect.
There are a couple of ways around it.
The easy way would be to save the values in the $_SESSION array and pick
them out on the next page. Harder would be to use CURL to post the data.
Or you could use javascript on the client side to change the action on
the form. But that requires javascript to be enabled.
