RE: [PHP] Form security

Another way to do this is to have a form element with an odd name and value that you can check for before processing the post. This is not too secure if someone knows the name and value though. In that case you can use the referer _and_ a unique element name and value that is related to the referer. Checking for these items before processing the form should be pretty good.

Let me rephrase it a little different. Other then checking the referer (to make sure the posted data came from the right page) and user agent (to see if it exists), is there any other way to secure a form from having other forms submitting to it? -dave -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, e-mail: php-general-unsubscribe@lists.php.net For additional commands, e-mail: php-general-help@lists.php.net To contact the list administrators, e-mail: php-list-admin@lists.php.net
