[SOLVED] Comment Forms

[sstangle73]

i have a comment form on my site and is there a way so that php wont send a blank comment form if someone goes to mail.php  its useing _post so when you go to mail.php w/o fillin out the form it sumbits as blank

you can validate it using javascript to check if the form is blank, or server side in mail.php

 

if(strlen($_POST['text']) < 1){
    echo 'Please fill in the form';
} else{
    ......
}

I usually use something like empty(trim($_POST["whatever"])) so they can't just hit the spacebar to trick it.
