4/16/2010 8:42:29 AM TNFlyboy Posts: 6	I have created a form used for voting on my site. I would like to capture the IP address of the submission to help identify duplicate submissions. This would enable me to determine if someone is abusing the votes by submitting multiple votes. Or if anyone has another idea on how to prevent multiple votes from the same person???? Thanks Jeff
