If it's a form to make a payment, it just gets sent off to another site. If it's a general contact us form, I just try to keep the spam down to a bearable level. Every couple of months I add new regexes. Speaking of which, I really need to do that now. Form spam is now annoying again. I do use an email address for each form and nothing else. That way I can just pick a day to wade through the trash. -- Regards, Chris Bennett "Who controls the past controls the future. Who controls the present controls the past." George Orwell - 1984
