Required fields command included with PHPeasy-form version 3.0

This easy to configure script makes it possible for website owners to receive legitimate contact information from site visitors.

A popular request for my PHP mail handler has been making fields required. This latest update in the PHPeasy-form series offers the ability to check specific fields to ensure they are not blank. This script also has the option of writing form results to a file. Writing the results to a file helps ensure you always have a backup of the forms sent through your website.

PHP easy-form installs in minutes and can be easily configured. Complete instructions are included in the readme file. This script is distributed as freeware. Download now.

Security upgrades for Geeklog and phpBB2

As with all programs, there are inevitable bugs and fixes necessary with previous releases. Such is the case with two of my favorite PHP-based scripts: Geeklog and phpBB2. Both announced patch updates this month.

It is highly recommended you upgrade your versions immediately.

The team at Geeklog released Geeklog 1.3.11sr1 to address a potential security risk due to an SQL injection vulnerability. More information on this security release, along with the download can be found at http://www.geeklog.net/article.php/geeklog-1.3.11sr1

phpBB Group announced the release of phpBB 2.0.17 which addresses several bugfixes and some low security issues as well as the recently seemingly wide-spread XSS issue (only affecting Internet Explorer). Complete details on the newest release, along with download information can be found at http://www.phpbb.com/phpBB/viewtopic.php?t=308490
