Random Blank Submissions?

Hi Everyone,

I wanted to know if anyone else gets random blank submissions every now and then from forms or shopping cart systems or anything like that? I have encountered this a few times. It is especially troubling when it shouldn't be possible. For example on a shopping cart i built it requires the user to login before checkout. I have only recieved 1 blank order from that system, but it still troubles me to see its possible. Usually the system will tell the person's name in the email that is sent to me, and that requires a login. So i don't see how i could get a blank email.

 

I was thinking it may be a random search engine crawler going through the pages...

if you getting a blank order ( and you saying your code authencate the person before ordering) then there is probably a bug in your code, for example:

 

someone logs in, then clicks on order

 

or someone logs in, add items, deletes them then clicks order

 

or someone double clicking order button

 

if you restrict your code, to authenticate,validate and verify everything then it should never happen.

Well I am authenticating them. When there are no items in the cart. It will tell them just that. If they delete an item. It will tell them there are no items in the cart.

 

Perhaps I am missing a pathway that i havnt analyzed.

Thanks!

 

Maybe i should check with my host also...
