[plug] PHP & Javascript

[Daniel Pearson]

Hi Kingsley,

You may also want to make email a unique field, allowing only 1 person 
per email address.. can be a good idea. Also, while it is a good idea to 
have a seperate config file, its not totally necessary as PHP is a 
server side language, and thus the code contained within is parsed 
before it reaches the presentation layer, so the user will not see it.

Cheers; Dan
