По какой-то причине, когда я нажимаю кнопку отправки, он снова загружает тот же URL, и страница становится пустой. Когда я нажимаю кнопку отправки, она должна загрузить новую страницу благодарности с общей информацией. Если вы посмотрите на URL моего заголовка местоположения, он покажет URL благодарности, который должен загрузиться, но похоже, что моя страница полностью игнорирует загрузку страницы благодарности и загружает только ту же страницу регистрации, но она отображается совершенно пустой.
