texte = Using the "back" buton.... That may be the problem. I'm generating the uniqueID as a hidden field when they enter the "blog entry" page. (or the "make a comment" page) Even though I have navigation links top, side, bottom to let them make a new entry after they've just submitted one, I'm willing to bet a very few just hit the "back" button until they get to the create a blog page again..... That would probably explain why the same ID is being used. I'll add a direct link on the "blog submitted" page to make available another way to create a new entry. That should hopefully stop the "back" button use.... Would this be safer? To make the ID at the append stage.... [append ^/hb/blogs.db]BlogID=[Date %Y%m%d%H%M%S]&etc etc etc [/append] I'm thinking it would.... Thanks --- "Dennis J. Bonsall, Jr."
