I would use PHP and just do this...
One can't JUST do that. PHP runs on the server; the client has to get the server's attention by making a request. Whether that's done by clicking a link, by clicking a submit button, or by the user typing into the address bar, it has to occur. If it's a simple page request, one may as well tell the server the page they want delivered, rather than ask the server for an executable page whose only reason for being is to deliver the second page that the client really wants.
