Stopping Another Data Insert When User Reloads Page
My PHP script inserts data into a mysql table that has been passed into it.
My question is, what is the general method by which to ensure that if a user reloads the screen, the same set of data doesn't get duplicated into the database?
For instance, I am inserting ticket data (its an ecommerce event system) into a mysql and really dont want duplicated entries if the user happens to press reload or back or whatever
Any ideas?

Page Reloads Keep Entering Data In Db
The problem is I have a small form that allows a user to input data into a database. Everything works fine, after a successful submission, the user get a message saying that their info was accepted. The problem is that if that page is reloaded, it enters the info again. There is only going to be one person doing the submitting so I could explicitly say...DO NOT RELOAD the page, but that seems kinda half as**d.

Errors To Appear On The Same Page As The Form Where The User Puts In The Data
I want my errors to appear on the same page as the form where the user puts in the data, and I want "non-error" results generated to appear on a different page. Right now, both the errors and any actual results appear on the new page, requiring the user to use the "Back" button when an error is made in order to re-enter the values on the form. I want the errors to appear on the same page as the actual form. On the page where the user enters stuff into the form, I've got: <FORM method="POST" action="res_search.php"> which is the page that the results and the error messages are being shown. Is there any way I can jig that second page so's the error messages show on the originating page instead.

Page Redirection - Allow The User To Click A Button That Sent Them To A New Page
I am writing a little section of a home made shopping basket. I collect information and put it in the basket / db. However, I want to update into a new database the final order as and when I click a button that directs the usuer to Pay Pal. My thought was to allow the user to click a button that sent them to a new page that updates the final order database and then redirects to PayPal the information required for billing without the user having to press another button. Would this be a sensible wat to go about it.

Mysql_real_escape_string After Data Insert

Insert Data On Different Rows
I am still relatively new to all the intricacies of PHP and am having a problem. I have 10 different students (S1-S10) from the same school who all are given the same foods for lunch on a particular date. They each get the same entree, condiment (like ketchup), grain, fruit, veggie1, veggie2, beverage1 and beverage2. I need to be able to enter the amount of each item consumed (like 8 tater tots for the grain) and proportion consumed (i.e. None, 25%, 50%, 100%, other, etc.) for each student. The proportion consumed can be a drop down but it needs to allow you to type in a value if over 200%. This data then needs to go into an Access table with each student (S1-S10) as a separate row.
