I'm sorry, but if Chris is correct and the authors write the survey forms themselves from scratch and you try to parse the results, then there's your problem. Kill them all and start over, not much else to be done! >:-} Seriously though. That would, if true, be a _very_ bad plan. It would probably be less effort to code (or adapt) a survey form generator which your clients walk through then try to handle random form submissions from various authors. <shudder> Then you would have control of the contents. If it's too late for that, then you add a user requirement. _THEY_ must include a hidden field, that you name, that lists all the expected fields. Even better, lists the fields and types. You only handle submissions with that field present and properly formatted, and only the fields listed therein. Period. Otherwise you will need to do some sort of HTML parsing of the form itself to find out what the authors have decided to place in there, and hope it's parseably well formatted.
