* Send auto email after submitting to let user know email has been recieved (requires database??)
Well, PHP doesn't know if you received the mail, but knows for sure if it has been sent. Doesn't need a db
* Let a user submit only 5 times a day to reduce spam (database or cookies??)
don't rely on cookies if you can use sessions or db. But if it's not a big thing you can use simple text, ini or inc.php files
* Only click submit once to reduce spam (php please, no silly javascript codes)
huh?
ok, dont worry about the auto email.
Would be glad if you could tell me and code the pages needed for the 5 times a day.
And submit once (when someone click the submit button, it greys out or something or fades out with the words "Processing, please wait", so it stops them clicking more than once to reduce spam)
