http header to mimic JavaScript's location.replace

I use JavaScript's location.replace method to have the response of a form to fall over the form itself.

The problem is that this technique only works with small forms, those ones that can be sent using GET method.

I wonder if there is a way to do the same issuing some kind of http header.

That is, a http headers that tells the browser to make the page "fall over" the one where it was requested.

Thanks in advance for your support !
