We decided to go with reCAPTCHA since it is run by the original creators of CAPTCHA and has the highest security standards. Many other implementations of CAPTCHAs can be easily broken. Other implementation also requires GD image library, which not all hosting support it. However, I do realized that reCaptcha won't be perfect for everybody. Regarding the looks and feel of the CAPTCHA, actually you could customize it to suit your site. The default color is red, but you could change it to 'white','blackglass','clean' and 'custom'. I haven't put any documentation regarding this yet, but here's how: Open your hooks/custom_hooks.php file, you'll see sample hooks code. Particularly this one: <pre><code>function form2_hook_pre_captcha(){ $capthca_theme =<<<EOT <script> var RecaptchaOptions = { theme : 'blackglass' }; </script> EOT; return $capthca_theme; }</code></pre> <code></code> This function is being used to customize your captcha color. Uncomment that function and change the themes with the value I mentioned above. Also, change the fuction name to use your form id. So for example this form <a href="http://www.appnitro.com/demo/view.php?id=7" rel="nofollow">http://www.appnitro.com/demo/view.php?id=7</a> has form id 7. The code would be: <pre><code>function form7_hook_pre_captcha(){ $capthca_theme =<<<EOT <script> var RecaptchaOptions = { theme : 'blackglass' }; </script> EOT; return $capthca_theme; }</code></pre> <code></code> I hope I'm being clear for you. Otherwise feel free to ask. chickc on "[closed] Captcha" https://www.machform.com/forums/topic/captcha#post-293 Thu, 15 Nov 2007 00:42:27 +0000 chickc 293@https://www.machform.com/forums/ Is there a way to use another for of Captcha that the default?? The existing one makes your beautiful forms look very ugly, not to mention its a bit of a pain in the butt to work with and slows the process down having to type two words or trying to listen to the very weird audio version/ Love this application. Will have more questions as I am getting used to it..
