The trick is to POST the form to the current page, save your data into the database using your favorite method and then redirecting to the next page.
Take a look at the following example:
<?php
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
// Insert into database
$stmt = "INSERT INTO table (something) VALUES ('".$_POST['data']."')";
// Redirect
header("Location: nextpage.php");
exit;
}
?>
<form action="<?= $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>" method="POST" role="form">
<div>
<label for="data">Your data to insert into the database</label>
<input type="text" name="data" id="data" placeholder="Data to insert">
</div>
<button type="submit">Save</button>
</form>
