So it's only if the user clicks a LINK on the page that the save has to 
occur? In that case you could use a technique where each link on the 
page with the form in it calls a JavaScript function that sets a hidden 
field in the form to a specific target URL (given as an argument to the 
function call) and then submits the form (after validation if necessary).

The form processor does what it needs to to save the data, then 
redirects the browser to the URL in the hidden form field.
