chaddsuk Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 Hi im playing around with adding data to my table, i seem to have it working great now however everytime i refresh the page it re ads the data to the table, whats the best way to stop this from happening? should i make the email addresses unique with mysql?...would that do the trick? cheers chris Quote Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/88039-refresh-problem-adding-extra-data/ Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHP Monkeh Posted January 27, 2008 Share Posted January 27, 2008 After you've inserted the data in to the database re-direct them to a confirmation page or something similar by using header("Location: page.php"); You could also make the e-mail unique, or use sessions to make sure they aren't re-submitting. They're just a few ways to get around the refresh button.
