Why the browser user agent string?
If I have firefox and IE installed on one machine, could I vote twice, once
from each browser?
Let me see if I understand the concept -
Email is sent with a link to an html page. The link could be of the form:
http://some.web.server/form.jsp?vote=no
The page then captures the vote = no, and displays a thank you page.
How can I get the email recipient's email address in the query string? For
example:
http://some.web.server/form.jsp?vote=no&email=member@yahoo.com
Mailman doesn't have a mail merge function that I know of, so I can't embed it
when I send the email.
Thanks!
Mark
