how to check for page refresh and page submit?

hi,
can some help me in this regard
i m entering some values in my databse from my asp page. for this i m using a submit button which submit the form to a new page that is 'insert.asp'. this page perform insertion and redirect it back to my previos page.
can i not do this insertion on the same page?
if i wirte insertin code on the same page it perform insertion for the page refresh also...thats why i m using another page(some people says why user refresh page?..but we can not restrick the user to not to refresh page...)....
so is there any way when i can perform insertion on submit click only and not on page refresh...
or is there any way to do call two different server side function(or perform two different code) on two different buttons.

pls help....
thnx in advance..

Hi Rahul,

So if I've evaluated what you've asked for correctly, you are entering values into a form, then sending these to the page "insert.asp" and once inserted, you are redirecting the user back to the input page (for the purposes of example, "input.asp")?

If you can provide your sample code for "input.asp" and "insert.asp" then I can walk you through it and show you how to submit the data to the same ASP page, process it and do the redirect, all in a single page.

If you can't provide your sample code then I can only advise you - use a hidden input in your form in "input.asp" and submit the data to "input.asp" - you can then check whether the user has refreshed using some simple error- and value-checking, and then load up input.asp again.

Best regards,

I think I would have taken a slightly different approach, when you click the submit button a new input is added named "submit" and it is given the value of whatever value the submit has, so if you had the following as your submit button: [code=html]<input type="submit" name="submit" value="submit">[/html] and then you check for this value before you do the update, you will get the correct result:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if request("submit") <> "" then
  2.    'do the update
  3. end if
now if the user might hit the "refresh" button accidentally after submitting the form and you want to prevent re-entering the data you might do it like this:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if request("submit") <> "" then
  2.    if formatDateTime(session("lastUpdate"),2) = formatDateTime(date(), 2) then
  3.       'info was already updated today, so ignore
  4.    else
  5.       session("lastUpdate") = now()
  6.       'do update
  7.    end if
  8. end if

hi jared
thnx for ur interest in this
but do yu think it would be a good approch. it wont allow the user to insert any value again on the same browser. i wnated to do that also...
what i m doinng now is to disabled insert button and adding a new button to ie 'add new value' and which resetal the fields and then enabled insert button..
and also i can not make insert button's value as submit coz i have more butons on my page ie. prev, next , first and last u can see in the code..updated code is here .. pls go through that pls let me know i m going wrong...or any better can be done.........
thnx again!

You have just posted over 250 lines of code. It is very difficult to read through someone else's code for that long. It would be much easier if you posted two or three lines to illustrate your problem.
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if condition
  2. 'you don't need to give the update code unless you want me to look specifically atr that
  3. end if
by the way, please remember to put your code in code tags - there is a button marked # which places code within the correct tags.

My code was just a simple example of one way to restrict user updates. There are hundreds of ways to do it, but essentially they will all use if...then statements to determine if a value should be updated or if the info was sent inadvertantly.

I don't want to read through your whole code, but if you have a specific question, post the part of the code that is giving you trouble.

Rahul,

hey, we don't have a character limit, so there is no reason to use SMS speak like "ur" instead of "your". People who don't spend a lot of time SMSing have a hard time understanding that, so we ask people to use as correct English as they can manage when they post here.

Back to your question... the code snippet I gave does indeed limit users to one update per day per session, but any ASP solution is going to look very similar. You will need to decide the best way to distinguish between desired updates and undesired, and make the only updates happen when you want it to. There are a million ways to do this, you will need to come up with the best solution for you. For example, you could have the submit button disabled unless a change has been made- this could be handled quite easily with javascript, and if the page was refreshed, the submit button would be disabled again.

hi Jared
Thank you very much for your lots of lots of help.......
i have done this already. you can check that if you go through the code(i know you wont like to go through that all and reason is obvious) ok leave that all. i made a new button 'Add New Value" that enabled the "insert" button and reset all the controls. and also performing validations before insertion on the page for nulll values and special characters..
now on page load i have disabled "insert" button. here is the specific code for insert operation.

Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if (request.Form("button")="Insert") then
  2.  
  3.            set m_connmyASP = server.createobject("adodb.connection")
  4.            m_connmyASP.Open "driver={sql server}; server=SERVER; database=DATABASE; uid=UID; pwd=PWD;"  
  5.  
  6.            m_sQuery="INSERT INTO info VALUES"
  7.            m_sQuery=m_sQuery & "( '" & Request.Form("Name") & "',"
  8.            m_sQuery=m_sQuery & "'" & Request.form("dob") & "',"
  9.            m_sQuery=m_sQuery & "'" & Request.form("gender") & "',"
  10.            m_sQuery=m_sQuery & "'" & Request.form("degree") & "',"
  11.            m_sQuery=m_sQuery & "'" & Request.form("address") & "')"
  12.  
  13.  
  14.            m_connmyASP.Execute m_sQuery
  15.            m_connmyASP.close
  16.            Response.redirect("Move.asp")
  17.  
  18.     end if
now problem here is that i have to redirect it to the same page again at last.. means again whole post back whole page load and everything..if i do not use this then "request.form("button").value" always remains same ie "Insert" for page refresh...the insertion performed on each refresh even "insert" button is disabled.

can you please tell if we can do anything better.
and i will try to use proper english from the next time.
thanks again

Most websites handle this problem by posting a large warning near the submit button, or visible just after the "submit" has been pressed which reads: "Do not click 'Refresh'. This will insert a duplicate record." But there are other ways around it. The best way I can think of you can only use on one condition. Is there any possibility that a particular record should be duplicated exactly? if not, then I would do it like this:

instead of inserting a record with the "insert" statement, use a "select" statement to open the this record:
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. query = "SELECT * FROM myTable WHERE name = '" & Request.Form("Name") & "' AND gender = '" & Request.form("gender") & "' AND degree = '" & Request.form("degree") & "' AND address = '" & Request.form("address") & "'"
then you check to see if the query returns any records
Expand|Select|Wrap|Line Numbers
  1. if rs.EOF then
  2.    'no records returned
  3.    rs.addNew
  4.    rs("name") = request.form("name")
  5.    'etc
  6.    rs.update
  7. else
  8.    'record is already in the db, user must have hit the refresh button
  9.    response.write "Hey, blockhead, this record is already in the db!"
  10. end if
Would this work for you?
