Programming Forum and web based access to our favorite programming groups.I'm creating a short html email to send to our existing customers which consists of half a dozen questions on an html form (within the html email) from which they use form radio buttons to pick their answer. They then click on a submit button which links to a php script in our webspace. This all works fine. If this were simply a form on a webpage (as opposed to within an email) I'd include something to check the HTTP_REFERER was what I was expecting to try and avoid it being abused. However, because this is an html form within an email, HTTP_REFERER is not set. Is there anything else I can test for to try and make sure that use of the form only comes from the email questionnaires we've sent out. (I appreciate I could just email people a link to a webpage and run the survey from the webpage but we're trying to make this as convenient as possible for people to try and get as high a response rate as we can). Many thanks, David
