Challenges when using window.location.href to redirect to a new page

I'm having trouble redirecting to a local domain php file that I've prepared to redirect to called thankyou.php Is there anything I'm missing in the code that would allow me to do this? I've done a lot of research on this issue now and don't see any difference between what I'm doing and what I'm advised to do.

<?php
    require_once "config.php";

    if($_SERVER["REQUEST_METHOD"] == "POST"){
        $sql = "INSERT INTO FormSubmission (fname, lname, address, email, phone, hname, chname, mstatus, bio)
        VALUES ('".$_POST['fname']."','".$_POST['lname']."','".$_POST['address']."','".$_POST['email']."','".$_POST['phone']."','".$_POST['husband']."','".$_POST['children']."','".$_POST['marstat']."','".$_POST['comment']."')";
        if(mysqli_query($link, $sql)===TRUE){
            header("Location: thankyou.php");
        }
        else {
            echo "Error: " . $sql . "<br><br>" . $link->error;
        }

    }
?>
<div id="nav-bar">
        
</div>
<script>
    $(function(){
    $("#nav-bar").load("nav.php");
    });
</script>

    You're not actually submitting anything, so just use the button tag and get rid of the return true stuff. Onclick can only be location="something".
