These two of your trials do not look bad.

In what way did they not work as you expected?


Note that the spec requires that the redirect URL should be absolute
(although, I did not yet met a browser that enforces this).

Note that values in a query string must be "url_quote_plus" escaped.

Note that "return DtmlObject(...)" can give you wrong relative URL
(when "DtmlObject" does not live in the same folder as the script).
