Help?! I'm getting tons of spam through my form on my website and I was
wondering if someone could help me install one of those security images
(showing a code) to successfully submit the form.

Obviously, I can create an image and make it a required field, but how do I
hide the required value to submit the form?

Thanks!!

Does your website support ASP ?

If so, then you can set the password in a variable, named for example
password, in an ASP file and retrieve it by
<%=password%>
where password might contain the value slKz7a6 (for example)

I have an example on my site below - try adding a comment to the guestbook.
I can send more info. if needed.

Hi Trevor,

No, ASP is the only language my host doesn't support. Can it be done with
PHP?

Thank you.

I think you will have to wait for others to answer this, as I don't know PHP

We have tried with pop up
It functions well but Google might still index your old site
And spammers use Google and Yahoo for their mischief

Let this link to your site with your formulary
Step1:
Put code within <HEAD>

<head>
<script language="JavaScript">
<!-- Begin
function popUp() {
props=window.open(your_website.htm', 'poppage', 'toolbars=0, scrollbars=0,
location=0, statusbars=0, menubars=0, resizable=0, width=200, height=300 left
= 100, top = 100');
}
// End -->
</script>
</head>
Step 2:
Put code within <BODY>
<A HREF="javascript:popUp()">Click here!</A>
