Link -> MySQL -> Refresh

[xProteuSx]

Is there a way to do the following:

 

Have a link on page1.php that sends a variable to page page2.php which then modifies a DB then automatically goes back to page1.php?

 

I have a small table that requests info from a DB and I want to provide a button that will go to a page with a small script that updates the DB then reloads the original page with the updated table.  Is this possible without pausing at page2.php?

on page 2 at the very end have this:

 

<?php
header("location: {$_SERVER['HTTP_REFERER']}");
exit;
?>

I will try this out when I get the chance.  Thanks.  I assume it will work.
