you're kidding, right?
i could drop anyone's email address onto your query string in such rapid
successesion that your domain (and/or isp) could be liable for a class
action lawsuit...regardless of what email address your db intended to
send/receive it. further, i could add cc, bcc and other directives to your
email that your script is sending...again, your db addresses are of NO
concern. 'as of right now', give me your url and i'll spread your site's
ass-cheecks wide...THAT would be the 'eye' you're keeping out for it. ;^)
i'd also work on your validation. it needs to be FAR more graceful than it
is now. i'm sure most people would like to know why something went wrong
rather than the mere fact that something did go wrong.
