Re: [WSG] OT? - spam in forms

Mike,

I've been suggesting the Question/Answer method to people for some time 
and it's definitely my preferred method.  It's so brilliantly simple yet 
nobody really seems to use it.  I guess there's a language issue that 
might need addressing, but it's definitely an improvement on images.

Hello Bob,

This should solve your problem:

Stand-alone version:

Demo: http://green-beast.com/gbcf/

WordPress plugin version:
http://green-beast.com/blog/?page_id=136
Demo: http://green-beast.com/blog/?page_id=135

Both are standards-compliant and accessible... and they seem to work rather 
well based on feedback and my own experiences with using them.


Respectfully,
Mike Cherim

Subject: [WSG] OT? - spam in forms


I seem to be going through a spate of getting spam in a form on one of
my sites (the one in the link, below, actually.)

So I tried using PHP to randomly display an image and getting the form
user to input what it says.

I still get spam!   I'm presuming that this is because the spammer will
work with javascript turned off, making the js checkform routine useless?

Sorry if this is OT - can anyone point me to a solution?

Thanks for any help . . .
