I think you have it backwards.

"The directive CACHE-CONTROL:NO-CACHE indicates cached information should 
not be used and instead requests should be forwarded to the origin server."

But even if you fix that, I don't think it will solve your problem.

I think you can create a "process.php" page that takes the "form.php" data, 
processes it, and then returns to the form page. The form page should now 
be considered a "new" page and refreshing should not resubmit the old data.

Or you could have a hidden timestamp be submitted and compare posts, not 
processing if the questionable post is less than X seconds after the last post.
