[wp-hackers] mysql insert and then a page redirect

[John Blackbourn]

You can use either the $wpdb->update or $wpdb->query methods to update
the database. These will return true or false depending of the query
is successful.

To redirect afterwards you should use wp_redirect( your_url ) followed by die().
