But a refresh button is basically a "retry the last operation" so it's not surprising the same information is sent again. The correct solution here is to use the technique mentioned by Satyam. Bascially: <form action="handler.php" method="post"> blah </form> handler.php <?php if (!empty($_POST)) { // Do stuff with $_POST, store it in a DB whatever. header('Location: hander.php') exit; } // Normal page output not referring in any way to $_POST echo "Normal Page". // If you have to present the data previously given in $_POST, then // either store it in a DB or in a Session when handling the data above, // then access the data from the DB or Session here. // EOF ?> This technique also means that the "back button" in the users browser is not "broken" by posting forms... which is nice.
