Try Rob's internal redirect utility, which as he says provides a tcl
wrapper for ns_connredirect.  The effect is basically a "goto" or
"overlay".  One moment you are running one script, then you internally
redirect, and you start running your other script.  What's most fun is that
all your tcl variables are still there with the same values.  So you need
not post at all.

I've used this for exactly the purpose you've given.
