You can't really do that...

If you wanted HTML output plus a re-direct, you could use a META
HTTP-EQUIV tag for the re-direct.

But I know of nothing in a PDF that would get you a re-direct...

Actually, you could send them off to the main page, with a META HTTP-EQUIV
re-directing them to your PDF and it *might* kinda sorta work on *some*
browsers...
