I am developing an application on corePHP, whenever I am handling add, edit & delete operations I am redirecting with "header" method along with query strings appending in the URL like "http://mywebsite.com/my_file.php?added=1" and I am checking if that "added" is there or not in the URL with global variables like "isset($_GET['added'])", messages are showing fine but what is my problem here is "whenever I just refresh the page the same page the message is showing again & again as the parameter 'added' is present in the URL. I know there must be a proper way of handling this. So, Can anyone please suggest a proper way of handling this. Thanks.
My code is below: Browser URL
http://mywebsite.com/my_website_page.php?added=1
my_website_page.php:
if(isset($_POST)){
$is_success = my_method_todo_some_task($_POST);
if($is_success ){
header('Location: my_website_page.php?id='.$my_var.'&added=1');
exit;
}else{
header('Location: my_website_page.php?id='.$my_var.'&added=0');
exit;
}
}
my_website_page.php :
if(isset($_GET['added'])) {
if($_GET['added'] == 1){
echo '<div class="" style="color:green;font-size:18px;text-align:center">1 Record added successfully</div>';
}else{
echo '<div class="" style="color:red;font-size:18px;text-align:center">Some problem occurred, please try again.</div>';
}
}
I know this can be posible with sessions but if we use session then again the same problem will come. So any idea apart from using sessions. Thanks.
