[FX.php List] error 958 parameter missing from query

[Bob Patin]

What about running an ASCII test to see if it falls within a  
particular ASCII range? I don't remember the numbers offhand, but you  
can test to see if it falls within the 2 ranges of upper-case and  
lower-case English characters... and maybe some punctuation as well.  
I would imagine there's a PHP function for it somewhere... if not,  
you could probably find a Javascript function that would do it. It'll  
slow things down a little though if you have to check every character  
that comes through.
