As dragon66 suggests in a comment, you can use an inline frame:

<form action="..." target="form-results">
...
</form>
<iframe name="form-results"></iframe>

The inline frame will display the data sent by the server as distinct from the page content but placed inside it. Depending on the server’s response, you could have just a small box that will contain information about successful operation.

You can set the dimensions (width and height) of the inline frame using HTML attributes or using CSS. If you wish to hide the inline frame, you can set width=0 height=0 frameborder=0 in HTML and/or iframe { display: none} in CSS
