[PHP-DB] Allowing refresh without form processing? From: John Pickett (xtremist <email protected>)
Date: 07/25/01

Hey,

I have a page where I'd like to allow the client to use their refresh
button. The only problem with this is, when they submit a form that's on
the page, it is parsed by the same page. So if they hit refresh, the same
information will be submitted twice (or more). How can I "clear" out any
knowledge that a form was submitted? I've tried adding unset
($HTTP_POST_VARS); to the bottom of the page but that didn't do anything for
it... Any other ideas?

BTW, I'm asking this because the form uses a db to process and I'm unsure if
that may be the issue or not...
