Are there specific PHP functions or techniques that can help mitigate the risks associated with form submissions and browser navigation?

One common risk associated with form submissions and browser navigation is the possibility of resubmitting the form data when a user refreshes the page or navigates back and forth. To mitigate this risk, you can use techniques like redirecting after form submission or using a token to prevent duplicate form submissions. 

// Check if the form has been submitted
if ($_SERVER['REQUEST_METHOD'] == 'POST') {
    // Process the form data

    // Redirect to a different page to prevent form resubmission
    header("Location: success.php");
    exit();
}
