Our login page performs a POST to authenticate and I'd like to put in a delay when a login failure occurs so that it hinders/frustrates any malicious users and any scripts they might be running.

I would think that the kind of throttling you're talking about is something you're better off doing with Apache than trying to do in your application code. -- Joe Germuska [EMAIL PROTECTED] * http://blog.germuska.com "The truth is that we learned from João forever to be out of tune." -- Caetano Veloso
