It's also packaged on Gentoo, and it is available from the Arch User Repository (a collection of community-supplied build scripts) on Arch Linux. So if you count Arch, that makes 4 Linux distros and a BSD. > And even if I did all that I still have to get past the last captcha. Well sometimes I get around them using the following techniques. Unbrowse the page. Find the form. Find the <img> tag for the captcha. Send the image to a sighted friend. Also, are they using recaptcha? It is ubiquitous, so they probably are. If they are, then there's an audio captcha. Recaptcha is very JS-intensive, and by default it isn't usable. They do have a non-JS option though. It's inside a <noscript> tag on the page containing the form. Unfortunately, edbrowse discards text in <noscript></noscript>. So you'll have to edit the page and remove the tags to find it. Once you have the JS-free recaptcha html, it's fairly straightforward to get an audio captcha from them and fill it out. Technically straightforward. In the past, their audio captchas were notoriously hard to understand. For instance, when we deleted our Facebook accounts last year, I had to listen to between 30 and 50 of them before I could find one that I could understand. Google owns recaptcha, and I think they've fixed this by now. They got a lot of bad press last summer, because a blindness-related petition on whitehouse.gov was protected by their inscrutable audio captcha, and therefore inaccessible to most of the blind! I solved it, but I have good hearing and lots of patience. -- Chris _______________________________________________ Edbrowse-dev mailing list [email protected] http://lists.the-brannons.com/mailman/listinfo/edbrowse-dev
