What validation and security is required on the comment form?

Hello colleagues,

 

 

I have recently started to create a hand - written blog and so far I do not encounter huge problems, but I was wonderthing about the validation part. I have escaped the code that goes into the DB after the user enters the comment with mysql_real_escape_string() function and also the htmlentities() function plus I have validated the min/max chars a user can input and a regular expression to match only an OK input. Of course, I have also made a font - line validation with JS with the same parameteres so I was wonder if you could please tell me what other validation of data I must make before a comment is written in a website?

 

Thank you very much!

 

Best Regards

Stefany
