I sent this before I did not even get a copy sent to myself. Perhaps it was
considered junkmail? Thus, the misspelling. See below.

Preventing "Cou-pon" Generation Fraud.

I am developing an e-commerce site that presents customers with an
opportunity to send five dollar cou-pons to their friends after they place
an order. There's a form with up to 5 email addresses to send these cou-pons
to. I have all the necessary logic in place but I am stumped by two
things...

#1. How do I stop the customer from hitting the "back" button to resubmit
the form again? Namely, how do I stop the same set (or a different set) of
emails from receiving these cou-pons? I realize the "back" button issue has
come up in various incarnations before... what was the consensus on how to
best prevent it?

#2. How do I prevent the web form from being downloaded and submitted from
someone's desktop. Namely, what is the logic I should implement that makes
certain that the form comes from my web server before I process?

Thanks in advance, Che
