Can anyone help me out with this problem.

I would like to redirect/ go to another php page when my SQL insertion is
done and also send a variable at the same time.

the idea is, to come on my page for the first time and not doing anything,
then I fill up my form and insert the data (with the button "add request"
and when the oci_execute is done go to another page.

all I need to know is how to go to another page automatically... and alos
send a variable at the same time I tried something but it doesn't work...

//it's here what I tried to do:

If (oci_execute($stmt)){

oci_free_statement($stmt);
print "add_task.php?request_name=$req_name";
//header("http://127.0.0.1/add_task.php?request_name=$req_name"); // it's
here I need a solution.
};

// thanks for your help
}
=============================================================
//here is my whole php page.

<?php

// variable name of submit button of request form

$addrequest = $_POST['addrequest'];
print "$addrequest <BR>";


//test if something is submited in the form if this is the case then insert
data in DB

if ($addrequest!='') {

$req_name = $_POST['request_name'];

$req_date = $_POST['request_date'];

$req_client_id = $_POST['request_client_name'];

$req_req_type_id = $_POST['request_type'];

$req_brand_id = $_POST['request_brand_name'];
if ($req_brand_id=='Brand Name') $req_brand_id='NULL';

$req_exp_date = $_POST['request_expected_date'];

$req_comment = $_POST['request_comment'];

$c1=oci_connect("stephane","Stef1975",$bdtest05);

$query="insert into requests (
request_name, request_date, request_client_id, request_request_type_id,
request_brand_id, request_wished_delivery_date, request_comment)
values
('$req_name',to_date('$req_date','DD.MM.YYYY'),$req_client_id,$req_req_type_id,
$req_brand_id,to_date('$req_exp_date','DD.MM.YYYY'),'$req_comment')";

$stmt=oci_parse($c1,$query);



Print "$stmt <BR>";
Print "$query <BR>";

If (oci_execute($stmt)){

oci_free_statement($stmt);
print "add_task.php?request_name=$req_name";
//header("http://127.0.0.1/add_task.php?request_name=$req_name");
};
// gestion du ELse: erreur dans l'insertion en BdD
