Well, to the geeks this will seem absurd but there IS a user propensity to feel that they must fill out each and every space on a given form regardless if it applies to they or not.

In the case of a user of mine... Recon133 he has chosen to put in something for each blank..

MSN IM: nope

Yahoo IM: samo

AIM IM: samo

ICQ#: samo

and last but not least.. Homepage: none

Well.. Im going to go beat on his head a little bit for being largely techtarded but I was thinking that at least for the WWW field.. using REGEX we could disqualify and simply not allow submission or remove the WWW button where the entered information is quite obviously NOT a valid input.

No.. not a show stopper.. not even a BUG... its the users stupidity outwitting the developers ability to be able to reduce his brain down to the size of a pea in order to anticipate the innane.

BUT.. you can all thank me since I house a very large PARATROOPER and otherwise INFANTRY dominated forum which means I have access to a great deal of the so called "lowest common denominator" and can beta the bottom end and provide feedback.

TA DA...
