up
saving me about $40/month. Everything was going great until they put a
Captcha on the page that my script uses to set my allocated resources.
A few folks have already replied about dealing with captchas in your
script, so I'm not going cover that.
What I'm going to suggest is that you talk to your host about
providing an API for customers to make these types of changes. In the
long run I that's a much better approach than trying to keep with
changes to the HTML forms.
