[nycphp-talk] Need page refresh solution after form data processing

I am trying unsuccessfully to eliminate the browser warning that it "can't
refresh the page without re-submitting the form data" when refreshing my form
page after it is submitted. Though refreshing the page wouldn't be typical, I
want to eliminate any potential user confusion.
Browser: IE6
The form is processed as:
<FORM NAME="request" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" METHOD="POST">
which then takes some action in the form:
if($beenSubmitted) {
//concatenate results
...
//mail results
}
AND serves the form again!
I have some sense it has to do with caching of header info. I have
unsuccessfully tried various header("xyz'); statements after processing the
form and before serving the HTML, including many suggested in the
documentation. I have googled. Again, haven't found suggestion that works, or
that I'm implementing correctly. I am not very knowledgable in the smoke 'n
mirrors of HTTP headers.
I appreciate any thoughts on this.
