Subject: [uug] PHP mail() function


> I need advice from people smarter than me.  This web page I maintain for a
> friend has a bunch of email addresses on it.  I know, I know, spam.  I
warned
> them, they wanted it that way.
>
> So now 6 months later, they get spam and want a solution so it doesn't get
> worse.  So, I started making them a form that people could use and so I
could
> learn more about the mail() function to send messages online.
>
> My thoughts go back to a UUG meeting when Dave Smith was showing us a
similar
> application, only with a database, and the quick thinkers in the group
showed
> us why security is needed by making pop up Javascript windows on Dave's
demo
> blog.
>
> So there is this function called strip_tags() which I tested and appears
to
> work.  My question is, is strip_tags() enough to prevent potential abuse,
or
> is there something else I need to put in there to make it even better?

> Thanks.
