Do you care that it's a second attempt? It's either valid input or it's not. If you really do care, then put an md5 token as a hidden input in the form, and store it in the db (or session) and mark it "used" after the first attempt. If that token is "used" then you know it's the 2nd (or more) attempt. -- Some people have a "gift" link here. Know what I want?
