Hi gang: Okay, so,what's the "best" (i.e., most secure) way for your script to identify itself *IF* you plan on using that information later, such as the value in an action attribute in a form? For example, I was using: $self = basename($_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME']); <form name="my_form" action="<?php echo($self); ?>" method="post" > However, that was susceptible to XSS. http://www.mc2design.com/blog/php_self-safe-alternatives says a simple action="#" would work. But is there a better way? What would do you do solve this? Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com/
