Facebook redirect_uri after post

I understand how to redirect a user after a logging in through facebook api, but how can I set the redirect destination for after a successful post. This is how I am simultaeously posting to facebook and my blog at the same time.

$post_url = '/'.$userPageId.'/links';

$msg_body = array(
  'message' => 'Hello World',
  'link' => 'http://localhost:8888/path/to/my/blog?blog='.$this->id,
);

$postResult = $facebook->api($post_url, 'post', $msg_body );

Currently, user will fill out the web form (new_blog.php) with the required blog fields, hit submit, and the blog will post to my websites database and also to facebook and then redirect back to new_blog.php. I need to redirect to a different page after successful post.

All calls to the Facebook Graph API via the PHP SDK are synchronous. Therefore you can call any function directly after the call to the API, eg:

<?php
try 
{
    $result = $facebook->api($post_url, 'post', $msg_body);
    do_something($result);
} 
catch (Exception $e) 
{
  // Error
}
?>
