Ian,
I was about to ask the same question. I thought you were posting to a cold
fusion page, hence I was giving you cold fusion code to use to check for the
form submission.
To accomplish what you want to do, I only see three options:
1. Modify the perl script to set a cookie, then you can look for that cookie
in your cold fusion page that displays the form (don't know if setting a cookie
is possible in perl as I know *squat* about perl).
2. Change your form processor to a CF page.
3. I haven't tried this, but theoretically, you could set a cookie with
javascript during the form 'onsubmit' event. A quick search resulted this
page:
which said you can set a cookie in javascript like this: document.cookie =
"name=value";, so I would do something like this:
<cfoutput>
<form action="cgi-bin/subqs.pl" method="post" target="_top"
onsubmit="document.cookie = 'localip=#cgi.remote_addr#';">
</cfoutput>
Then, at the top of your page, change your <CFIF to this:
<cfif isDefined("cookie.localip") and cookie.localip EQ cgi.remote_addr >
STOP!
<cfabort>
</cfif>
Just FYI - You don't need to put # signs around a coldfusion variable when it
is contained within another cold fusion tag or function.
Hope this helps!
Dave

How are you setting this client variable if the calling page is posting to a
perl script? I am not sure how this is possible? You would need to have
form posting to cf page which sets the client var.

Still not working very frustrating, can you see from the code why the
form keeps displaying instead of the STOP message as I have submitted
the form !
When I run a cfdump var="#client.localip#"> it comes back with an error
' Element LOCALIP is undefined in CLIENT. '
<cfif isDefined("client.localip") and client.localip EQ
#cgi.remote_addr# >
STOP!
<cfabort>
</cfif>
<cfif isDefined("form.v4")>
<cfset client.localip = #cgi.remote_addr#>
</cfif>
<form action="cgi-bin/subqs.pl" method="post" target="_top">
<input type="hidden" name=":SURVEY:" value="Questionnaire2">
<input type="hidden" name=":EMAIL:" value="[EMAIL PROTECTED]">
<input type="hidden" name=":USERID:" value="069/001">
<input type="hidden" name="V4" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="V20" value="">
<input type="hidden" name="V21" value="">
</form>
