texte = Hi All,I have an simple online petition for a client that has a form page people fill out to submit their info. I have a little problem I can't figure out. Every once in a while I get submissions that look like form variable tags. If I do a search, the results look like someone deliberately typed in form variable tags in the form. Here is an example of how the search results look.First Name: [_FName]Last Name: [_LName]Address: [_Address]City: [_City]Zip: [_Zip]Day Phone: [_Dayphone]Evening Phone: [_Evephone]Fax: [_Fax]Email: [_Email]On the response page that comes up after the form I basically have two big [Showif] containers. One determines if certain required fields are blank. If they are I show a form again and ask them to fill out the required fields. The second [Showif] container shows the code to submit to the database and a thank you message if all of the required fields are filled in. I'm not sure if I'm missing submissions or if somehow my [showif] used to catch blank form fields is not working in some instances. If this is the case why would something like form variable tags get submitted instead? I'm using the plugin for the Mac version 3.0.1. Any help would be greatly appreciated. This has only happened 3 times in 150 submissions but I need to stop it because my client is getting nervous. You all know how that goes.Thanks for your time and have a great day!BrianDigital Gear Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
