Strange survey input

Hi all,

I just received an unusual survey response and wondered if anyone has any
suggestions on the cause.  I'm running mod_survey on apache 1, on gentoo linux.
www-apache/mod_survey-3.2.3-r2 

*Every* field in the survey was filled with 999,  including the IP address and
version fields.   I could see that someone might have entered 999 in every
field, but I can't see how the survey version and IP address would be
corrupted.  They are env variables and a constant.

The only field that was not exactly 999 was the survey key, which appeared to
be valid.

I've checked logs, and the only operation I see in the log was a GET.  No POSTs
occur matching the time of the record.  So I really can't explain what
happened.  And not hints of other errors were in the logs.

(I saw something similar today at work where around half of the fields of one
survey respose were 999 - including things like lickert controls.)

And on another topic,  I've put together some custom questions that are
MUSTANSWER=yes.  However the error message only states that a custom question
must be answered.   That doesn't leave the user with much of a clue on what is
wrong.  Is there any way to provide an error response for the custom fields so
that the user gets a hint about what is required, either through an
undocumented variable or a perl snippet?

Thanks,
George
