I am in the middle of implementing the google captcha in my application and wanted to get some clarification on how the server handles captchas.
I want to make my application’s captcha consistent with the one located at: https://www.google.com/accounts/DisplayUnlockCaptcha where the user is asked to enter an email address, password, and captcha answer. When the user supplies a different email address and/or password with their captcha answer does the server gracefully ignore the captcha token and captcha answer provided to the service, or does it invalidate the captcha? This information could be useful to anyone implementing their own captchas, so I want to get it in the google group where it is easy to find. Greg Robbins over in the Objective-C discussions stated the following: "I think the server generally will ignore the captcha information if it is not needed for the supplied account name and password, but I am not certain. The server's behavior may also depend on a variety of abuse-prevention details that it keeps track of to prevent improper account activity." I was hoping someone could confirm and/or expand on Greg's response. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Google Data Protocol" group.
