1. Download a hidden, unique "transaction ID" with each instance of a
form.

2. In the Session object, keep a table of ID's, marked "used/unused"

3. When a form is submitted, check the table for the ID.

    3a. If the ID is unused, mark it used.
    3b. If the ID is used, the form submission is a duplicate; handle
accordingly
    3c. If the ID doesn't exist, then it was not issued during this
session;
        treat it as "expired".

I hope this helps.
