I have a problem. If the user presses the refresh key on their browser another entry gets added to the db table How can I stop this.

 

I have tried the following:

 

$query = 'SELECT * FROM products WHERE prod_id IN (';
foreach ($_SESSION['cart'] as $key => $value) {

$query_ex_user = "SELECT * from line_items WHERE ref_no = '{$_SESSION['ref']}' AND prod_code = '$key' AND filename = '$filename_out'";
$result_ex_user = mysql_query($query_ex_user);
	$num_ex_user = @mysql_num_rows($result_ex_user);
	if ($num_ex_user == 0) {
    	
// Insert the line items
$query_li = "INSERT INTO line_items (ref_no, prod_code, qty, filename, edge, effect, date) VALUES ('{$_SESSION['ref']}', '$key', '$value', '{$_SESSION['line_file']}', '$edging_out', '$effects_out', CURDATE())";
		$result_li = @mysql_query ($query_li);

}		


$query .= $key . ',';
}
$query = substr ($query, 0, -1) . ') ORDER BY size_mm ASC';
$result = mysql_query ($query);

Well, if you want help it is extremely helpful if you 1) use code tags when posting and 2) have properly indented code to visually display the structure.

 

In any event, the solution is still the same as I stated above. Since, you are displaying the form again after a submission you need to just reload the page WITHOUT the post data using a header() function. You will need to move all of your processing code above any output to the browser. Then after the processing is done (e.g. Inserts) and before you output anything to the page add this command:

 

header('Location: '.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);

 

The page will then reload as if no data was submitted. So the user can hit refresh as much as they like and no duplicates will be entered.

Forgot to add that you will also need to do a check to ONLY do the redirect if data was submitted

if (isset($_POST['submit']))
{
  header('Location: '.$_SERVER['PHP_SELF']);
}

 

But you should be doing that check to determine if you should process the data anyway, so you could simply add it at the end of the processing phase.
