PayPal passes a ton of data back to us when someone's done purchasing something. I use some of that information and shove it all into a database. Problem is, if someone hits reload on their browser, I get the same data re-inserted again. Reload the page four times, and I will get four records with the same data inserted. How can I avoid this? I'd like to silently either discard the information after it's been inserted, or silently prevent it from being re-inserted again. -- W | I haven't lost my mind; it's backed up on tape somewhere. +-------------------------------------------------------------------- Ashley M.
