Hey Dan, I've ran into this before a few times.
Basically, I've negotiated with my client that if I re-use the same code, the look and feel would be different, but because it's a standard form that's used by other sites on the internet, that if I were to create the code from scratch again, it would function exactly the same. Usually a standard Non-dislosure and non-compete is enough to make the client feel comfortable. Let me know if you need a copy of one of my agreements.
