How to prevent 'form resubmit' after redirect in rails

I'm having an issue where I submit a form successfully. It redirects to the show action. If I refresh the page (ctrl+r) it opens a prompt asking if I want to 'Confirm Form Resubmit', which I don't want to do.

Has anyone seen this problem before and know how to fix it?

Here's some code:

The form view:

= simple_form_for @book_request do |f|
  = f.input :title
  .actions= f.submit

The show view

%dl
  %dt Title
  %dd= @book_request.title

My controller:

...

respond_to :html

def show
  respond_with(@book_request = BookRequest.find(params[:id]))
end

def new
  respond_with(@book_request = BookRequest.new)
end

def create
  @book_request = BookRequest.new(params[:book_request])
  @book_request.save
  respond_with(@book_request)
end

def edit
  respond_with(@book_request = BookRequest.find(params[:id]))
end

def update
  @book_request = BookRequest.find(params[:id])
  @book_request.update_attributes(params[:book_request])
  respond_with(@book_request)
end

...

Update:

This issue looks like it has been resolved. I just updated to chrome Version 26.0.1410.43 and it works as expected.

This is bug in chrome. Should be fixed soon. For more info see https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=177855

Edit: If you want temporary fix (for development purposes) you can just add any get parameter to the for submission url. After handling POST, redirect as usual.

= simple_form_for @book_request, url: books_url(time: DateTime.now) do |f|
  = f.input :title
  .actions= f.submit
