The code below is first the client code, then the class file.

For some reason the ‘deductTokens()’ method is calling twice, thus charging an account double.
I’ve been programming all night, so I may just need a second pair of eyes:

    if ($action == 'place_order') {

    if ($_REQUEST['unlimited'] == 200) {

        $license = 'extended';

    } else {

        $license = 'standard';

    }

    if ($photograph->isValidPhotographSize($photograph_id, $_REQUEST['size_radio'])) {

        $token_cost = $photograph->getTokenCost($_REQUEST['size_radio'], $_REQUEST['unlimited']);
        $order = new ImageOrder($_SESSION['user']['id'], $_REQUEST['size_radio'], $license, $token_cost);
        $order->saveOrder();
        $order->deductTokens();
        header('location: account.php');

    } else {

        die("Please go back and select a valid photograph size");

    }

}


######CLASS CODE#######
<?php

include_once('database_classes.php');

class Order {

    protected $account_id;
    protected $cost;
    protected $license;

    public function __construct($account_id, $license, $cost) {

        $this->account_id = $account_id;
        $this->cost = $cost;
        $this->license = $license;

    }

}

class ImageOrder extends Order {

    protected $size;

    public function __construct($account_id, $size, $license, $cost) {

        $this->size = $size;

        parent::__construct($account_id, $license, $cost);

    }

    public function saveOrder() {

        //$db = Connect::connect();
        //$account_id = $db->real_escape_string($this->account_id);
        //$size = $db->real_escape_string($this->size);
        //$license = $db->real_escape_string($this->license);
        //$cost = $db->real_escape_string($this->cost);

    }

    public function deductTokens() {

        $db = Connect::connect();
        $account_id = $db->real_escape_string($this->account_id);
        $cost = $db->real_escape_string($this->cost);
        $query = "UPDATE accounts set tokens=tokens-$cost WHERE id=$account_id";
        $result = $db->query($query);

    }

}

?>

When I die(“$query”); directly after the query, it’s printing the proper statement, and when I run that query within MySQL it works perfectly.

$action = $_REQUEST[‘action’];

account.php is just a list of orders, never does it call up downloads.php. Just tried commenting out the redirect, but I’m having the same problem. I don’t understand how it’s getting called twice, the die statements are showing the right query, and the script doesn’t reload itself.

Here are my apache access logs:

71.*** - - [22/May/2010:13:14:35 +0000] "POST /download.php?action=confirm_download&photograph_id=122 HTTP/1.1" 200 1951 "http://***.com/viewphotograph.php?photograph_id=122" "Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.9.2.3) Gecko/20100401 Firefox/3.6.3 (.NET CLR 3.5.30729)"

I understand there’s obviously something wrong here. But I can’t figure out where the second request is coming from.

    Another long shot, but it happened to me once in Firefox – doubled page executions, resulting in doubled inserts and updates – close your browser and restart.
