Hello Medard, Personally, I have always disliked captcha and in its current form I absolutely hate it. I can hardly read the damn words and sometimes it takes forever to get one I can read. Have you considered some variant of "obvious answer"? You may find this not too tricky to script, presenting a randomly selected question or task from a list and checking the user supplies the correct matching response. This might get a little cumbersome if there are number of languages you'd feel the need to support gets long, though. Good luck! _______________________________________________ use-livecode mailing list use-livecode@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-livecode
