It would be better to handle it at the client. Just add a javascript on_submit routine to check a local JS varialble to determine if this is the second event ... if so cancel the form's sumit action. This way the server database is not queried.

If each user is uniquely identifiable then just do a quick search on that identifier before inserting form data. If a record already exists for that particular id then disallow the new information. >> ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Archives: http://www.mail-archive.com/[email protected]/ Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/index.cfm?sidebar=lists or send a message with 'unsubscribe' in the body to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
