LOL...that's a nice feature. -----Original Message----- From: Todd Rafferty [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, July 24, 2008 9:49 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Re: Form Spam Attack
On my form, I have: <span class="spampot"><label for="important">It's important that you don't fill this out:</label> <input type="text" name="important" value="" class="input_large" /></span> I set the CSS style for spampot display: none; If it's ever filled out, I reject the message. Anyone using a modern day browser never see the text field, so... volia? o_O On Thu, Jul 24, 2008 at 10:45 AM, Todd Rafferty <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > Oddly, I use a css hack and I haven't gotten much from bots.
