Thanks Previous Comments: ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-17 15:02:26] pajoye at php dot net I will add a non visual captcha (plain text, readable) while changing the other captchas. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-17 14:29:37] toggg at php dot net I tend to believe an alternative way would be to request a mail confirmation, as when you subscribe to a list. ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-17 13:57:31] olivierg at php dot net Maybe better: audio captcha. There's a PHP library for this ... Visual and audio CAPTCHA generation class : http://www.ejeliot.com/pages/2 And very good informations there : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Captcha#PHP ------------------------------------------------------------------------ [2006-03-17 13:43:10] olivier at samalyse dot com Description: ------------ To prevent spam bugs (spugs? ;-) posted through the "Report new bug" form such as : http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7087 there is a need for a CAPTCHA mechanism as on the "add comment" bug form. However, bertrand Gugger mentioned on pear-dev a problem with PEAR's CAPTCHA images and screen readers : http://beeblex.com/lists/index.php/php.pear.webmaster/4901?s=l%3Aphp.pear.webmaster (looks like the "add comment" captcha is non-screen-reader-compliant in this regard. Neither is the "Request account" one...) What about a non-graphical CAPTCHA as experimented in Phorum : http://www.phorum.org/phorum5/read.php?16,54054 ? Hummm... not an easy one ;-) ------------------------------------------------------------------------ -- Edit this bug report at http://pear.php.net/bugs/bug.php?id=7143&edit=1
