After searching Google, reading the PHP manual, PHP mailing list archives, looking for clues on SANS and Security Focus, I have yet to find an answer to my question. I have a section in a form for a user to enter comments and or questions. What should I be checking for, from a security standpoint, with my PHP script? The information will be both inserted into a database (MySQL) and sent via email. I have found examples for items such as phone numbers, addresses, email, etc., but nothing in regards to comments. Any direction would be greatly appreciated. Thank you, Steven
