I'm surprised no one has mentioned this before, but the standard
approach to this problem is to redirect after a successful
1. Did you try the headers for no-caching of the page?
2. If you wish to avoid dupes in a DB, Primary Keys are the tool to prevent
duplicates.

the only way? Here's more simplified code:

If you are trying to avoid the browser caching the pages so that they fetch
a new copy of the page every time, add the following 2 meta tags to the
header of the html page:
Those don't guarantee that the browser won't cache the page but it should
