The only drawback to your code is you can never edit the item, or the IP address will be overwritten. If that's what you want, then fine.

BDH specifically wanted it to only insert the IP address on inserts, but not change it on updates, I believe.

The required is not really necessary, either way.[/quote]
Ah, I didn't read that part. I actually only use that code on things I don't edit; like when someone sends a contact message or support request, etc. But that's a simple change if anyone cares.

Code:

function _get_ip($field, $parameter) {
    if( empty($this->{$field}) ){
        $this->{$field} = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];
    }
}

Back to the htmlform extension: OverZealous are you planning on revamping it any time soon? I have a major project coming up that will be taking up much of my free time, but if I can slip it in there I would be willing to take that off your plate. I think it's one of the most useful bits of code I use these days, but I find myself having to add things to it here and there (mostly, but not entirely, for the the purpose of fitting a design). I think it's almost as much of a time saver as DMZ itself. I love it, but it's getting time for a rewrite. Also, I've rewritten the templates to be div based rather than tables.
