I have a form in my jsp file of the eclipse.
the form gets values and inserts them into my database.
I entered the values and pressed the submit button, so the values were inserted into my database.
the problem is: if I refresh the page, the previous values are inserted into my database again, although the inputs are empty.
String name = request.getParameter("name");
so after the refreshing, the name gets the last value that was inserted.
how can I fix it?
You should use the POST method for HTTP requests that perform an action, and GET for those that only retrieve data. Respond to the POST request by redirecting to a resource that would be requested with GET. That way, the form won’t get resubmitted.
