    Hey,

    I'm not sure how to explain this, but what I want to achieve is the
    following:

    I have form (written in php) which should be filled out by some invited
    people.
    I want to make sure someone can not fill out the form twice by using a
    cookie.
    However, I don't seem to find the way to do so.

    It should look something like this:

    if cookie exists then echo "you can not vote twice"
    else show form
    if form is submitted then place cookie

    (if you guys get what i mean)

    Anybody some usefull tips?

    Many thanks in advance,

    DiMMaX
