I have two JSP pages, the first allows the user to enter data and submit to a handler page that does the processing, posts the data to the database and re-displays a confirmation of the data entered.

The issue is that if a user "refreshes" the handler page through the browser... the data gets posted to the DB again....

Is there any methodology to prevent this from happening in this context.

Thanks !

Yes. Please read this article and pay particular attention to the PRG pattern.
