If you have to send back values that you don't want a user to see, why don't you build the page you are outputting and echo it out instead of issuing a whole redirect? That way, you can use hidden form elements to hold these values. If you just need values to be persistent, have a look at the $_SESSION array and session_start() which you can use for this.
