There are several controls in place to prevent duplicate entries, recognize typos in dog names, etc., but I've just closed the door on one more. When a blank submission form was used to enter a new dog, and it's name was already in our database, a page would be displayed to compare & verify the old vs the new information. There's nothing wrong with this, except in the case were a different Sire, Dam, Sex, Birth Date, etc. are entered. These fields cannot be modified after their initial entry, unless they were left blank in the first place. This could only be a problem when a blank submission form was used -- the [Update Info] link located on various pages prevents anyone from changing these protected fields. The new protection feature I've just added will warn of the error, and suggest alternative actions; like e-mailing the info to us for a manual database entry, or starting the submission process again with a pre-filled form using the original database record (protected fields cannot be changed on this form).
