Hi!

    Let's say there are 3 webpages with webpage #1 for customer filling out
the form and submit it to webpage #2 for processing and database
insert/update then php header("Location: http://www.whatever.com";) to
redirect the webapge to webpage #3.  (or back to webpage #1).  That way, the
web-browser doesn't have a history of webpage #2, so the database is immune
to browser's refresh/back/forward button (from database duplication).  Now I
have people telling me that it is not healthy to use the header("Location:
blah blah") to force the web browser to redirect and that I should use the
fsockopen instead.  A fsockopen on webpage #2 on the Apache's side where PHP
can open a port to send a request to apache to have it to send a webpage #3
to the web browser.  That sound okay to me but I see one big problem.  If
fsockopen is used on webpage #2 to emulate a webpage #3 then the web browser
only see webpage #2 and webpage #3 together as webpage #2.

    I see no idea workaround to it, in fact there is none.  So, it look like
I have to stick to header("Location: blah blah").  So, what is your thought
and opinion.  If there is a workaround them I'm all ear!.
