Exactly. The only way I've seen that this can be prevented is if the form action is PHP_SELF, so, you call the page onto itself and use a isset($submit), but I have reasons for not going that route, one being that I have already have a navigation laid out, and changing that will be a nightmare!

Page1 (fill in data)->Page2(write data, instant redirect to p1, unless dies from php/mysql) Then the only way to repost, is to push the forward button.
Unless, of course, they hit the "Submit" button again and I think that was the point the original poster was getting at. If the user cannot hit the back button, they cannot hit submit again. Chris
