How about in your filter code, you unset any variable before you set
it. that's prevent the duplication, and let you keep the rest of the
code as-is. Most likely that'd be in the code that renders the link
for adding filter so that it doesn't contain another value for the
same filter it'd be setting, if I understand what you're doing.
