For a quick and dirty fix, Mike, you might try something like this on
one of your inputs:
<script type="text/javascript" language="javascript">
function makeHuman(input,element){
if(!document.getElementById("ishuman")){
var formText = element.innerHTML;
var ivalue = input.value;
var iid = input.getAttribute("id");
var hinput = "<input type=\"hidden\" name=\"ishuman\" id=\"ishuman\"
value=\"true\"\/>";
element.innerHTML = formText+hinput;
//Need to rewrite the blurred field value since the blur event doesn't
set the DOM value
document.getElementById(iid).value = ivalue;
};
};
</script>
<input type="text" name="myinput" id="myinput" value=""
onblur="makeHuman(this,this.parentNode);"/>
this will use javascript to write a hidden input in the form. Then
you can validate your form by wrapping your logic with:
<cfif structKeyExists(form,"ishuman") and form.ishuman>
[processing code here]
</cfif>
This will take care of everything but direct input by a person in a
javascript enabled browser. For better results, you place the script
in one of your site .js files. As was said earlier, sometimes the
spammers use a human to capture the form values an then plug it in to
their software for spamming runs.
Captcha's are an easy solution too, as suggested earlier.
