>- see footer for list info -< Hi Jenny, I would look at what the drivers are behind people registering multiple times, what is the benefit to them? Am I right in saying this is the chicks and chaps site you are referring to?
Knowing why people register multiple times might lead to a better solution which might not be a technical fix but maybe a navigation or sign up information fix.

Could you use email address as a unique identifier to prevent multiple signups? Or are people using different email addresses to get around this already?

So it's not going to stop someone coming back and creating a second registration. Currently, to keep a user barred I'm using the CFID/CFtoken pair, but this doesn't seem to be viable. > -----Original Message----- > From: Snake [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: 14 June 2005 17:48 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED]; 'Coldfusion Development' > Subject: RE: [CF-Dev] CFID > > > http://www.macromedia.com/cfusion/knowledgebase/index.cfm?id=tn_18232 > > Russ > > -----Original Message----- > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Jenny > Gavin-Wear > Sent: 14 June 2005 16:41 > To: Coldfusion Development > Subject: RE: [CF-Dev] CFID > > >- see footer for list info -< > Hmm.. interesting .. jsessionid ? > > > -----Original Message----- > > From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > > [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Snake > > Sent: 14 June 2005 12:41 > > To: 'Coldfusion Development' > > Subject: RE: [CF-Dev] CFID > > > > > > >- see footer for list info -< > > I think we must have replied to one another directly at some point > > and not noticed, so all our replies to each others posts from that > > point have not been going to the list but to each other LOL. > > > > What you can also do is stick a cookie on each users machine so you > > know they have already registered, and thus stop them registering again. > > Their sessions may not be getting stored due to a number of reasons > > such as NAT, proxy servers, antispyware, cookeis being disabled etc. > > > > You could always try using JSessionID's instead of CFID's > > > > Russ > > -----Original Message----- > > From: Jenny Gavin-Wear [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > > Sent: 14 June 2005 08:40 > > To: Snake > > Cc: Coldfusion Development > > Subject: RE: [CF-Dev] CFID > > > > > > Still looking at this.
