There are multiple ways to prevent this from happening. The simplest is to Response.Redirect to a another page, which can be refreshed without consequence.

// process form post
Response.Redirect("anotherpage.aspx");

A common solution to this is called Post Redirect Get (PRG), where the browser is immediately redirected to a HTTP Get page after any post. See Post Redirect Get in asp.net for a web forms implementation.

It's easy to reset a page to it's initial state in ASP.NET by redirecting to itself. Here are 3 ways you can do it:

  1. Response.Redirect(Request.Path);

In which the path to the request is presented in the following form: /MyApp/MyFile.aspx

  1. Response.Redirect(Request.RawUrl);

In which not only is the path exposed, but also any querystring parameters like: /MyApp/MyFile.aspx?foo=bar

  1. Response.Redirect(Request.Url.ToString());

In which not only is the path and querystring parameters exposed, but made available as an absolute reference in the form: MyServer/MyApp/MyFile.aspx?foo=bar
