You should have a change password page anyways. Just create the standard reset password page that takes the existing password and two new passwords and changes the password to the new one. It should work a lot like the registration page. Then when a user requests a new password, you randomly generate one, set it as there password, then email them to new password and a link the change password page. -- Curtis Cooley [email protected] home:http://curtiscooley.com blog:http://ponderingobjectorienteddesign.blogspot.com =============== Leadership is a potent combination of strategy and character.
