Hi, Instead of the usual flow chart of form.php -> process.php, where process.php displays a "thankyou" message afterwards, change it to: from.php <-> process.php -> thanks.php process.php doesn't echo anything out to the browser at all... it validates your form data, and depending on what happens there, it will use a header() redirect to send the user back to the form, or forward to the thanks.php page. in practice, all three actions (form, process, thanks) can all happen within one PHP script, but i split it into 3 for clarity. justin on 21/03/03 8:56 PM, WMB (wmb@euronet.nl) wrote: > Am using dreamweaver and hv an entry form on a page, which works fine, > unfortunately upon page > refresh the data gets entered another time and another time again on > refresh. > Any solutions on this? > > Thanks, > Martin > > > >
