I need to redirect to a php page with informations by POST when a user click on an image.

Here's the way I do it for now : 

function redirect(id) {
   var url = 'newPage.php';
   var form = $('<form action="' + url + '" method="post">' + 
                    '<input type="text" name="prankId" value="' + id + '"/>' +
                '</form>');
   $('body').append(form);
   form.submit();
}

With Javascript, I create a form with my input and I submit it. But when i reload the page (that I redirected to), it ask me to resubmit my form. Is there a way to do it where I wouldn't have to resubmit it?

  • Why are you *re-loading* the page you wind up on? – Malovich Nov 30 '16 at 21:16
  • "resubmit data" means that something was posted. If you want to not have someone resubmit the data, in php, use the post data, do stuff, store the result in a session and then do a header redirect. After the redirect, you can access the data from session to build the page. – Jonathan Kuhn Nov 30 '16 at 21:17

  • @JonathanKuhn Thanks, I will do it with session variables – Antoine Grandchamp Nov 30 '16 at 21:29

You can use GET instead of a POST request or you can use POST/REDIRECT/GET pattern.
