[Zope] Human validation in zope/python

2005-12-07 Thread Ed Colmar

Hey All

I'm wondering if anyone has a module that will generate the randomized 
images that are so common these days in registration forms to verify 
that the user is a human.  Or, alternativly, other strategies to block 
spamming of registration forms by bots or other automated methods.


Thanks!
Ed

Search the list - this came up before. I recall pycaptcha
http://sourceforge.net/projects/pycaptcha
http://freshmeat.net/projects/pycaptcha/

IIRC, when I downloaded it I ran into some problems running it.
Indeed, the demo site for it has an ImportError.

I'd use Python Imaging Library or PythonMagick to create some random 
text and apply some filters on it.
