As a general rule of thumb you should ALWAYS validate the information posted as a form before sending it on to whatever backend you are using.

One of the things I do is provide a way of adding records to the database by an html form. This seems to work out well so far unless one of the fields in a record contains an html reference. The result is a Sablotron parse error. What is the best way around this? Should I validate the form before it is submitted so that html references are rejected? How would I do this? -- Bill Amsterdam, NL -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
