Alternative to captcha

Discussion in 'HTML & Website Design' started by phononlattice, Mar 27, 2011.

    Can anyone suggest me an alternative to captcha? I need the code too.
    I dont want recaptchas. Some thing like 2 + 3 would do where numbers change frequently. Cannot find it on google, please help.

    if you use wordpress, there is a plugin you can install, after that who submit a reply need to check a box only, its more easier to readers.

    Considering that captcha is an acronym (Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart), are you specifically against using a specific company's software? Or you do not want humans to prove themselves before sending a form?

    Interesting....
    Have you considered to build your own? I haven't tried it though, but perhaps a simple CAPTCHA system could be built involving a few technologies:
    1. Matching a user saved session UID to unique answer of the equation.
    2. PHP's GD library
    3. Ajax (additional).

    it's a very simple php code, from the top of my head I would do something like this:
    1) when printing the form (at the bottom / after the form)
    <?php
    $no1 = rand (1,9);
    $no2 = rand (1,9);
    $sum = $no1 + $no2;
    $_SESSION['captcha'] = $sum;
    ?>

    2) at the top where the validation goes:
    <?php
    if (isset($_POST)) {
    if ($_POST['captcha'] == $_SESSION['captcha']) {
    // your rest of code here
    }
    else {
    // print validation error here
    }
    }
    ?>
