The PHP code that controls the update begins with this line
("form1"
will be whatever name the update form has):
if ((isset($_POST["MM_update"])) &&
($_POST["MM_update"] == "form1")) {
Place your cursor at the end of that line and press enter a
couple of
times to insert space for the following code:
if ($_POST['myVariable'] != 'required_value') {
// code to inform user that update has not been done
}
else {
Then scroll down until you find this code:
header(sprintf("Location: %s", $updateGoTo));
}
Insert another closing curly brace immediately after it to
balance the
opening one after "else".
Replace 'myVariable' and 'required_value' with the field that
you want
to check and the value it needs to be.
