The best way to do this is with an HTTP header called Location.
It is used like this. If page1.php contains a form that submits to
page2.php, you will want to handle the form data with page2.php, and
when you're finished, have a line that looks like this:
header("Location: http://yoursite.org/page3.php";);
In this example page3.php would be what you want the user to see, so any
output that is in page2.php should be moved to here. When the user
refreshes the page, only page3.php will be executed. If the user clicks
back once, page1.php is displayed (the form). So, the intermediate
"processing" page is transparent.
