You need alot of things lately don't you Can't you just store submitted IPs into a file?

[Flisker]

Then it could be easily found and people could get hacked

put it into a mysql db then query if ip = 0 display form

[Moh]

right, iv got it so it adds the ip 2 the database, now i need it so:
if ip is in database it says you cant use it
but if ip isnt it displays a form.

can any 1 provide me with a script pls

[Eccentric]

well you would query like

Mysql_query()
fetch it lol
if ($query=1){
echo("You have taken part in the form");
}
if ($query=0){
echo("FORM");
}

im not very good with querys

$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
$query = "SELECT * FROM `loggedips ` WHERE `ip`='" . $ip . "';";
$res = mysql_query($query);
$num = mysql_num_rows($res);

if($num > 0) {
//don't display form
} else {
//display the form
} 

Edit the query as appropriate.
