Post/Redirect/Get (PRG)

Hi,

I am developing some complex html forms and I am trying to get my head around the best way to prevent repeat user submissions. Post/Redirect/Get (PRG) seems to be the best way but I couldn't find anything on treehouse, does anyone have any good suggestions?

Thanks,

Len

Well you can do by start or end session, This way you can track if user already filled the form.

or you can also create a new field inside your form and hide it to check.
