checkFormID

Hi, I added some new fields and removed others on register.asp

I am receiving the following error only when updating a user profile:

Error

Only members with sufficient permission can access this page. A security error has occurred with authentication. Please ensure that all cookies are enabled on your web browser, you are not using a saved or cached copy of the page, and your Firewall/Proxy settings are not hiding or masking your IP address.

I have tracked the problem down to this line of code:

Call checkFormID(Request.Form("formID"))

If I comment out this line, I can successfully edit the user profile.

Please advise.

i would prefer the forum be secure as possible...

if possible, can you briefly explain what I can do to get the function working correctly?

The only mods I made to register.asp was to add a few fields, do a database lookup on one of those new fields before adding the user and then write some info to a new table in the wwDatabase. Why would this affect the checkFormID function?

Thanks for your time.

thanks so much Borg. I didn't even think of using the Firefox JS Console. It pinpointed the error:

I removed the option to allow the user to modify their password but didn't remove/comment the Javascript code to validate it  :)
