Hi All,
I am describing my situation below.
I have a page called AddTicket.jsp, which sends all the ticket related data
entered by the user to the servlet AddTicket.java.
Now AddTicket.java creates a new ticket id by fecthing the maximum ticket id
from the database and adding 1 to it.
Then AddTicket.java inserts the record which consists of parameters received
from the jsp as well as the ticket_id generated. If the insert is successful
then it sends a message to the message page using the following code
ServletContext sc=getServletContext();
RequestDispatcher rd = sc.getRequestDispatcher(/jsp/Message.jsp);
rd.forward(req,res);
Now when the record is inserted then the Message is displayed on the message
page whereas the URL on the browser is still that of the servlet.
When I press F5 at this juncture, the servlet AddTicket re-executes thus
creating another record with the next ticket id but all the data is same as
the previous one. I want to prevent executing this servlet at this point
when I refresh the page. What should I do and how should I go about it.
I hope someone can help me fast
Thanks in Advance
Shashwati
