I've decided that I'm going to use CAPTCHA only as a last resort since it sometimes annoys people. In the meantime what I've done is made it so the pagename that the form posts to changes every day to some nonsense name (_x7R4sw9c.html, etc.) using a pre-parse script that triggers when the form page is loaded. So far so good. If spammers manage to figure it out, I'll change the name 2x a day and then after that I'll do CAPTCHA. -Dan > > The only thing I'm not sure about is that the filename contains the > actual number... so I would think a utility that is smart enough could > find that number (as it is the last digit before the suffix). > > I may change this so that the file name is more encrypted.. and then > use a reference table to find the correct file name. > > Donovan ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
