This happens because when you refresh the page the request is executed again and again. To stop this after it happens for the first time, create a Boolean variable "insert" and set it to true initially. Only perform the insertion to database if insert == true. Else, don't perform. You may set insert to false after first insertion.

Remember to make the variable as a SESSION variable
