Hi All... Thanks for all the advice. Not to PO any of you, but out of all these I like AndyB's version the best as it simply addresses the spam issue I am dealing with. I don't want to replace any of the bad words, I want to stop the script from allowing these trash recipes to be sent through whatsoever. I do realize that I will have to create an array of the words I want to ban. One thing that needs to be addressed is the fact that I don't want the script user/bot to know their recipe is not being posted, or they will probably just alter their words (e.g viagra becomes v i a g r a). If I could have a bit more direction on this aspect, and at the risk of being a total pain (a.k.a. newbie), can you inform me of the best way to implement this into my existing php script. With gratitude!... Chef Kevin

Hi, I operate a cooking website and as such, an online recipe book that people can input their own recipes. While this is a great idea for interaction with my visitors, it has been bombarded by bots with unwanted words/URL's in the addrecipe.php that I physically have to remove. I get about 20 or so of these daily, and I don't have the time to manually handle all the deleting of "bad recipes". I've been told that by using a strpos() I will be able to ban the words/phrases I don't want in my recipe form. Can any of you provide me with a simple php script that I can put in my cookbook script to handle this? I appreciate any help you can give me on this! Thanks in advance... Chef Kevin
