Pass Captcha Form from a 3rd party site?

Discussion in 'PHP' started by BlackPropeller, Mar 7, 2011.

    I've been trying to figure out how to do this for the last week or so, but had no luck with it.

    Basically, I scrape a website for information and reformat the look to make everything easier to read. They sometimes have a captcha loaded on the page preventing the info I need from showing up.

    My Question is: Is it possible to "proxy through" or pass the whole captcha box/field to my website visitor? That way, instead of me having to log-on every 5 hours to enter it, one of my visitors type in the captcha and submit it for me via/through my website?

    Does this sort of make sense? :p hahaha

    Suggestions will be appreciated.

    CAPTCHA is built to prevent what your trying to do.

    lol, i realize that, but there's always ways to bypass it.
    For example, I have a Php proxy script which I integrated into my website's admin panel.
    Using that proxy script, i can go to the third party site and type in the captcha.

    One way that I was thinking of doing it, was to isolate the captcha form, and iframe it to my visitors (after all they need the info i'm scraping, so the captcha is for their own good :p ) haha
    What do you think?

    There's a FF add-on Captcha Monster which can do it automatically, but I'm afraid it's not a free solution
