[PHP] Browser going to page twice?
I'm having a weird problem. When I submit a form on my site, it often sends twice. I'm not sure if this is a client-side or server-side problem, but it doesn't happen on other sites. Is this a common problem, or am I making some dumb mistake? -- The above message is encrypted with double rot13 encoding.

Often if you go to http://server/directory Apache rewrites that to http://server/directory/ with a Location header or some such. If entering it in your browser with the slash fixes it, that's the one. Modern browsers seem to automatically add a slash if you just put in www.domain.com as part of converting it to http://www.domain.com/ but for subdirectories there is often a redirect. hope this helps! -- Morgan Hughes C programmer and highly caffeinated mammal.

Nope, it happens on all of the pages, but it seems to be fairly random. It doesn't happen all of the time, just sometimes.

Apache I hope? There is an Apache directive (in 1.3 at least) that controls whether the server sends back replies with the name it was called by, or the "official" name of the server. UseCanonicalName and ServerName may be the answer. I've seen this effect with those options using authentication... If not that, then I don't have a solution, but I sure admire the problem! ^_^ -- Morgan Hughes C programmer and highly caffeinated mammal.

Yes, I'm using Apache 1.3.22. Mind giving specifics on what to set those options to? I'm not very great with configuring apache...

Hmm, nope. It's now off and it's still doing that. (I did restart apache) Morgan Hughes wrote: On Mon, 2 Dec 2002, Leif K-Brooks wrote: Yes, I'm using Apache 1.3.22. Mind giving specifics on what to set those options to? I'm not very great with configuring apache... Basically, you can have any number of names resolve to the server's IP address, via DNS or hosts files (/etc/hosts, c:\windows\hosts, or c:\windows\system32\drivers\etc\hosts). This is especially true if you're doing virtual hosting on the server. You use ServerName to tell the server what it's DNS name is, so it doesn't have to look it up. This may be just one of the several names you can give the server, but it's the one it will reply with, and the one it will print out on directory indexes and error messages. As long as you set UseCanonicalName, the server will use with the ServerName, or whatever it looked up for its IP address. This may be different to whatever you accessed it by, so it may redirect you to the same page with the new name. If you turn off UseCanonicalName, the server will reply with whatever name you used to contact it, which may solve this problem. I almost always run with UseCanonicalName off, on my development servers... For production servers one doesn't usually have that level of control... If you can turn it off, try that. I'm not sure it'll help, but it's worth a try. Good luck! -- The above message is encrypted with double rot13 encoding.

Is this a public site that we can take a look at? I know there are some JavaScripts which refresh/reload pages in order to work around bugs in Netscape 4. Is there by any chance anything in your site's tags which does this? -Step -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
