You want an event on the server (form submit) trigger an event in the client (reload a page). This is not how http work. It cannot be done with http. It must be done using websockets. I.e. Both pages must open a web socket (using for example gluon/contrib/websocket_messaging.py) and the server must pass a message to the websocket server which is sent to the client (page B) and triggers JS execution to reload the page.
