You ought to tell your registration-page to redirect to itself right
after the visitor hit the submit-button of your form.
This should to the trick:
[code]
form name=form action=?php print $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?
method=post
[/code]
Therefore your script will have to check if something has been posted.
[code]
if (!empty($_POST) isset($_POST['button_name'])) {
// perform validation, insert record into database, etc
}
[/code]
.. might do, while 'button_name' is the name of your form's submit-button.
Note: You should checkout the thread 'Form Submission' started on July
6th since this is appearently not the best way to check if the user hit
the submit-button.
