Use:
<META http-equiv="refresh" content="2; URL=http://www.example.com/">

...but please reconsider. Two seconds (or really any low amount of
seconds) is definitely not user-friendly. Most visitors will not have
time to comprehend what the page said.

Put a link on the page back to your home page, or better yet, have the
page work just like all your other pages, complete with standard
navigation. Let the visitor decide.

They may want to print your confirmation page, too.
