Angular2 http.post gets executed twice

Question

I came across a weird issue where the Angular2\'s (RC1) Http service executes the http.post call twice. I\'ve debugged my app and I know for a fact this is not a click event

its happening because HTTP OPTIONS executed first, and you have to restrict unwanted HTTP method before executing your Logic, always use isset method,see example below

 if(isset($_POST))
 {
    $name = $_POST["name"];
    $country = $_POST["country"];

    $sql = 'INSERT INTO user values("' . $name . '","' . $country . '")';

            if ( $conn->query($sql)=== TRUE) 
            {
                $outp =  "Inserted " .  $name . "  and  "  . $country;
                echo json_encode($outp);
            } else {
                echo json_encode("Error: " . $sql . "
" . $conn->error);
            }
        }


here it will insert row in table only when its POST METHOD.
