Hi there,
first at all I like your script. I have made some improvements for the forms we use all no problem. I'm looking for a way how I get an field value (in my case the email address) from the actual form in post_function.php.

Why I need:
In your script you have the function "Limit One Entry Per User". Ok this function check the IP adress. I have modified this that one entry per day is valid instead one entry at all. This works, no problem. The problem is if 2 or more user use this from in an internet shop than all the user will have the same IP. Here exact I need the field value from the actual form (email) to check IP and EMAIL. If the same within 24 hour the user get the message " Sorry,.... per day".

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Uwe

Hi Uwe,

If you want to get an email element you can get it by add some code in "post-function.php",try to search around line 303 and you will find this code :
```
$table_data[$element_name] = $element_data;
```
put exactly bellow that code
```
if ($form_id == 3 && $element_id == 3) {
	$_SESSION['email_value'] =$element_data;
}
```
In there I assume you are using form with id = 3 and email element id = 3, you should adjust the id with yours.
