Question

I have a login system, and while logged in, if I refresh the browser, Chrome shows a pop up window titled “Confirm Form Resubmission.” I assume that the same thing would happen with other browsers.

How can I allow the browser to be refreshed without this confirmation pop-up window? Of course, I would also like to stay logged in while refreshing the browser.

Answer 1

After processing the POST page, redirect the user to the same page.

On http://test.com/test.php

header('Location: http://test.com/test.php');

This will get rid of the box, as refreshing the page will not resubmit the data.
