There isn't a true way too that I know. You could always disable the back
button with JS, but that's usually really annoying for users. I usually
write code against the condition. What I'll do is come up with the scenario
on every page that posts info (in particular inserting of records to a DB)
and ask 'what if the user clicks refresh or back'. Think about the queries,
and write some validation that ensures if they do happen to hit back, AND
they ignore the warning that a browser will throw, it won't matter anyways.
Sometimes it's difficult to write, but usually it's not a big deal.
If there is a way to disable POST data on a refresh, I'd love to know how
though :)
