each line is written twice to my file, double submit, double hit counters?

[pufftissue]

I think something is wrong.

my hit counter is going 2, 4, 6, 8, 10....That makes no sense.

whenever i use fwrite(), each of my lines retrieved from a form are written twice and I have duplicates....

data1
data1
data2
data2

I also have strange commas being inserted randomly.

My code says no errors in Zend.

Can someone please help me? I am using MAMP and PHP5.

Here is relevant code, each time I'm getting what I'm calling "duplicate" errors.

	<form action="guestBook.php" method="get">
		<p>Name: <input type="text" name="name" id="name" size="20" /></p>
		<p>Email Address: <input type="text" name="email" id="email" size="20" /></p>
		<p><input type="submit" value="enter" /><input type="reset" /></p>

</form>
<?php

$name = $_GET['name'];
$email = $_GET['email'];

$info = $name . "~" . $email;

$guestBook = "guestbook.txt";

$guestBookHandle = fopen($guestBook, "a");
if (fwrite($guestBookHandle, $info) > 0)
	echo "<p>Your info has been recorded successfully.</p>";

else
	echo "<p>Unsuccessfuly writing to file.</p>";
fclose($guestBookHandle);
?>


<?php

$CounterFile = "hitcount.txt";
if (file_exists("hitcount.txt"))
{
$hits = file_get_contents("hitcount.txt");
++$hits;
}
else
	$hits = 1;

echo "There have been $hits hits to this page!";
if (file_put_contents("hitcount.txt", $hits))
	echo "The counter file has been updated.";


?>

<form action="Healthconference.php" method="post" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded">
	<p><label for="name">Name: </label><input type="text" name="name" id="name" size="20" /></p>

<?php

echo "here";
$name = $_POST['name'];
$address = $_POST['address'];
$city = $_POST['city'];
$state = $_POST['state'];
$zip = $_POST['zip'];

$registrationFile = fopen("registration.txt", "w");
$guestInfo = $name . ",";
$guestInfo .= $address . ",";
$guestInfo .= $city . ",";
$guestInfo .= $state . ",";
$guestInfo .= $zip; . "\n";


if (fwrite($registrationFile, $guestInfo) > 0)
	echo "<p>You have been registered!</p>";
else
	echo "<p>Could not write to file.</p>";
fclose($registrationFile);


?>

I've only looked at the first one - I figure the issue is a common element between the three so I should be able to replicate it if it is indeed an issue with those snippets - however as I thought the text only inserted once.

Are you possibly calling the scripts twice? Including them with include(); instead of include_once(); or something?

If not, try putting an exit after the write and re-running them and seeing if the double-writes stop. If they do, replace the exit with a mail and send yourself a backtrace, which will show you what's calling them.

e.g.

mail('[e-mail]', 'trace - ' . date('r'), print_r(debug_backtrace(),true));
