Hi I had a problem with what my host called "a spate of insecure PHP applications being used to upload proxying applications" which I think has been solved, however I've just spotted this when trying to validate my HTML: <form action="abc.php4" method="post"><input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="aada9a6f795cb72df1ef8b8f61d2715c" /><div class="secondColThird"><input type="submit" value="register"></div></form> The HTML validator wants the <input type> to be within the <div>. Problem is, I didn't put the <input type="hidden" name="PHPSESSID" value="aada9a6f795cb72df1ef8b8f61d2715c" /> in there, it's just appeared. So. Should it be there? Is this just sessions working like they should? I've never seen it before. Or have I got Russian Big Boobs all over again :-) J
