Comments form

[jonbenitos]

Hi I have a comments form but the problem is it doesnt have validation so if the user doesnt enter any information it will still send to my email and also the user can click submit over and over which I would like rid of. Does anyone know the code to do this, I would be very grateful if someone could assist me. The url of the comments form is http://www.galaxywindows.co.uk/contact/form.html
, I have attached my code if anyone wants to look at it. Cheers
Many thanks

Hi I edited and tested your .asp file (I had to comment out the email part since my server doesn't use cdonts) to verify the data of the message field. It is always recommend that you test every field to ensure that correct data is being entered for various reasons including security.

The function I added will check the message to see if it is empty or that it contains the default message. The I add an if to not allow an email to be sent if the function returns a null value for the message. Pretty simple and can be modified if you wish to add more functionality.
Also I commented out the data conversion part of the function that changes certain characters that may conflict with a sql query since it doesn't apply here but you can use it to add conversions for character that may cause conflicts with your code.

As for the disabling it for awhile to avoid repeated entries I would suggest cookies or something similar but I don't have much experience in ths area.
