I need some 'advanced' form functionality a- Captcha
i've built a registration engine. i need to toss a captcha on it. possible candidates: http://captchas.net/sample/python/ http://aspn.activestate.com/ASPN/Cookbook/Python/Recipe/440588 http://svn.navi.cx/misc/trunk/pycaptcha/ http://mail.wikipedia.org/pipermail/mediawiki-l/2006-February/010078.html ( the generator is python, the rest is not) or... write one on my own using PIL ( kinda leaning there. i like PIL , and i dislike all those methods. the bulk of them use things that have already been defeated ) the reason i post this here, is simple - TG would be better with a captcha widget. the problem however, is that i wouldn't know how to implement it for global use (its going to need to store a hash relating to the captcha somewhere and somehow - and it would be nice if it were a scalable solution - ie not memory resident - for that to work, we'd need a TG_captcha class/table , and i'd like input from people on what they'd like to see in it). if someone is willing to work w/me on it, lets talk about what you want in it, and how we can build this FAST. b - Redirects I'd like to work out an idiomatic way to handle form processing that works something like this: /path/to/form - present form clean /path/to/form__soft - present form with any url args run through the validator widgets, but don't submit ( ie: register/[EMAIL PROTECTED]&month=tuesday will show [EMAIL PROTECTED] preloaded int the form , but since tuesday is not a month, it will not appear in the form ) /path/to/form__submit - process form on sucessful submit... redirect header to /path/to/form__success on bad submit... redirect header to /path/to/form__error and also allow for the __(soft|submit|success|error) to be querystring based as well its common in mod_perl to have apache send a redirect header on a form parse, so people don't hit reload and submit the same thing twice. so i'd like to get that out of the way too. this is obviously going to be a document and coding guideline, and not really any new code. i know i differ in how i work than many people here , so I'd like to try and create this as friendly to others as possible. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "TurboGears" group.
