Re: Problem with empty form-variables in [search]

If the password is wrong, the record won't be found. But if the user leaves the Pass-field blank, it is found (it should not!). >And if a user guesses a password of one another, there is a record to be found also.When a field is completely empty in a search, WebCatalog acts as though it were never there in the first place (this is for good reason; it helps with large search forms). You may need to use RequiredFields=email,password in your form, or perhaps use [ShowIf] to make sure they entered a value.P.S. I just read Rob's answer from earlier in the list, and his is better. But I'll post this anyway because it's a handy technique.Grant Hulbert, V.P.
