I'm not sure why you can't use the header function after a database
query. Doing a query doesn't send any HTTP headers to the browser by
itself. I'd say look at the structure of your script and page. You can
probably do it better where you can use header() in your script.

For example:

$sql = "UPDATE download_count SET download_count='whatever'";
header("Location: downloadprogram.php");

That should work with no problems.
