CroNiX Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I suppose an easy way would be to use sessions. You can have a counter on your page that gets stored in a session variable. Check the variable at the top of the script and if its greater than 1 dont insert.

.josh Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 Are you trying to prevent someone from resubmitting info in general, or just avoid posting the same thing twice if you accidentally refresh?

.josh Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 I don't really see how you can accidentally move your curser all the way up to the refresh button... but anyways... Couple of possible suggestions: - Add a timestamp of some kind to your table. Check when the last time a user inserted something into the database and don't insert if it's < x time. I suppose someone could wait until after x time is passed and then hit the refresh button, but it would prevent those initial "accidental" refreshes. - Run a query on all the posted vars and check if there is a row where all the posted vars match. If a row is returned, then don't insert a new row. This isn't really efficient...mostly depends on how many vars there are and what's in them... - Use a javascript event handler to prevent user from using refresh button. Downside is that user can easily disable it. If we're talking about "accidental" refreshes, I don't think you need to worry about that...though the user may not have javascript enabled in the first place... - As cronix suggested: make a session variable and check for it. Don't allow insertion if it exists. And no, we cannot provide you with the code. We aren't here to write the code for you. Just point you in the right direction and help you fix bugs in your own code. If you want code written for you, hire a freelancer.

Psycho Posted October 17, 2008 Share Posted October 17, 2008 There is a very simple solution to this. Just use a header to redirect after you process the post data. You can have the page redirect to a confirmation screen. Or, if you have the form post to itself so the user can enter another record, have the page redirect to itself after processing. All POST data is stripped when redirected in that manner.

CroNiX Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 The double Submit Fix by O'Reilly Just read the PDF. I hope this works for you. Thats a lot of unneeded stuff...using a session variable you could do that in like 10 lines of code.

PFMaBiSmAd Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 Some code to do this using a session - <?php session_start(); // session variable to check if the form processing code has already been executed once if(!isset($_SESSION['processed'])){ // if the session variable does not exist, create it and initialize it to false $_SESSION['processed'] = false; } if($_SESSION['processed']){ // form data has already been processed exit('Thank you, the form data has already been processed.'); } .... // put the following line in your actual code at the point that the data has been successfully processed - $_SESSION['processed'] = true; ?> Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/128904-how-to-avoid-sending-data-on-refresh/#findComment-668635 Share on other sites More sharing options...
