If you are looking how to detect double submit, then use tokens. If you want to get rid from double submits and from POSTDATA dialog, use redirection. To use redirection, submit your data with POST, process it, then redirect to the result page. User will be able to reload it without causing a resubmit. Of course, you would need to save the data and messages somewhere between requests, either in the session or you can stuff then into request as a bunch of query parameters. You just need to decide what is more important for you: to solve the culprit of double submit, or to detect and handle it.
