jasper182 Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 Hello, I'm trying to build a new registration system for my website and I was wondering if anyone here could help me figure out how to create those nifty "Enter the text shown below" sections that shows a bunch of jumbled letters with lines through them that real users (and not bots) need to enter before the registration is finalized. I've done some digging and haven't found anything related to this. Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jessica Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 It's called a CAPTCHA.Google that and you will find more info.I installed one today for someone, and I can do the same for you if you need. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharkBait Posted January 4, 2007 Share Posted January 4, 2007 They are fairly straight forward actually. When I first when through the Captcha script I use I was like, hey cool!Now I am thinking of making a new form of the Captcha that uses basic math:Display an Image of a math formula: (1+4) * 2 =User would have to enter 10 ;)There are some bots/scripts out there that seem to get past some of the captchas but I have yet to see an example of such a feat.
