Captcha for form submissions

Getting bombarded with spam and looking some kind of captcha
that I can mix with CF before form submission. I did find a CF tag
online (recaptcha.riaforge.org) and got keys and all from
recaptcha.net but, after reading forum blog at riaforge I'm not
sure about it working for me. I have an older site developed with
Allaire CF Studio ver 3.1 that I can't possibly go back and recode
(although I do have Dreamweaver MX 2004)... Does anyone know of
anything existing for CF that checks to see if an actual human
submitted the form? I need this for both unsecure and secure sides
of this older site... Thanks for any reply posts and I'll certainly
let everyone know how this post worked out for me...

Due to all of the objections to Captcha technologies and
general user disdain, I finally just put a question on my form that
says "What is the opposite of cold". If the entry equals "hot" then
the form continues.
Looking at my web logs, the spammers/bots are not smart
enough to actually READ the questions, and therefore never populate
the answer with the word "hot".
Give it a try. If it does not work, go to something more
sophisticated. Use your imagination with the question. You will
likely have to tailor it to your audience and make it simple enough
to where there is conceivably only one answer. You might consider
just saying "Enter 'yes' if you want to continue".
Sometimes the simplest solution really is the best
solution.

External Form Submit

Hi Friends,
I would like to submit my BSP Page Externally .
For example , I want to do the coding like this for submitting the form externally.
<input type="button" value="Save" name="onInputProcessing(save)" onClick="confirmSave()" >
At the moment , I wrote the following code for form submit.
<input type="submit" value="Save" name="onInputProcessing(save)" onClick="confirmSave()" >
Regards
CSM Reddy

Hi CSM,
Write this coding for that.
<input type="submit" value="Save" 0nClick="onInputProcessing(save)" />
and check event_id in onInputProcessing event handler.
If I have not understood your problem do revert back.

Make local copy for any submit form data provided prior to send/submit

Dear Sir/Madam,
I am trying to achieve a behaviour of firefox 22 under Ubuntu 13.04 Linux that has to do with forms/submit.
The result I want to achieve is to have a copy filed for each registration form, personal information provided like job application forms done on websites with multi step submit/apply button at the end.
The copy "bill" I am after would simply be adding on a scroll the screenshot for the webpage(including scrolling areas) to a localcopy.
The idea is to look for words like "register", "Address" "Job", "Application" on the page where a form/submit has been detected and simply compound save all displayed steps with data inserted by me.
For me a lot of this makes sense since prior to for example sending mails or letters by post I file a local copy for my reference ect. This would be an electronic equivelent of it.Saving tremendous energy and time compared to manually saving each step and then looking for a way to name/organise and "collage" all the bits into one receit/bill/scroll.
How can I modify or achieve this behaviour on Firefox 22 under Ubuntu?
I have installed addons like InFormEnter, SessionManager iMacros Lastpass...
an arrow/menu started similar to InFormEnter near a submit button as a method to confirm a loacl copy prior to sending would be ideal.
Sincerely yours,
Nikita K. Tsarov

I was online earlier this week and liked the forms with submit buttons and the Adobe site directed me to upgrade to Adobe PRO XI in order to use forms so I bought five licenses. Just had it installed today and it is now asking me to sign up for forms Central in order to use this feature. What gives? The Adobe site gave me the impression that I would have this feature after purchasing the new upgrade. I would not have purchased the upgrade, let alone five of them had I know this. Am I missing something?

Acrobat XI comes with the Fromscentral AIR application and the ability to create PDF forms authored in Formscentral. To have more than the free (1 form with 50 responses) level account you need to sign up for a Formscentral subscription.

Increase in SPAM web form submissions

Hi,
I'm noticing a trend of increased SPAM web form submissions across most of our BC sites. This has got particularly bad in the past week or so. All SPAM submissions follow a very similar theme. The text is complete 'gobbledygook' basically! The forms being used don't have any description fields where long descriptions or links can be entered so I struggle to see why this is happening.
What I want to know is:
- is this something other BC partners are noticing, particularly recently
- are your SPAM submissions similar to what I have shown below
- what can we do to reduce these other than using CAPTCHA on all forms?
- we exclusively use BC but I would be interested to know if the BC platform is particularly bad for SPAM submissions or is this something all sites are suffering from nowadays?
- any other light you could shed on this issue or advice you could impart would be much appreciated
Real submission example:
First name: tjlavseb
Surname: tjlavseb
Email: [email protected]
Date: hgnhQMmssGynJLb
Time: 11am
House Name: LHkJxazHGUYClEZJQd

Hi there,
We are experiencing a high volume of spam since changing our web forms on our newly redesigned site. The objective of the site design was to make it quick and easy for clients to get a quick quote thus asking for only a few fields to be completed. Adding a captcha form would actually detract from the purpose of the form.
We have implemented the honey pot field which seems to have made little to no difference in volume (this seems to be the case for this fix across many other users of BC). The problem is with our spam is quite unusual whereby we are not getting any specific info from them really making it hard to detect if it is spam or real. See example;
Have you seen this type before?

Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null

Hi,
          I have a page jsp which contains a form. This form contains an action
          towards (page.do ).
          I configured struts-config.xml file in whom I put a configuration of
          action ( type=xxx.pageAction ) but not form because I have not need of
          it.
          During the execution it show that it tries to instantiate a bean of form
          corresponding to a configuration of action and post this error message
          " Root causes of ServletException javax.servlet.jsp. JspException:
          Cannot retrieve definition for form bean null "
          Could you indicate to me where is the problem ?
          Here is my configuration :
          < html:form action = " page.do " method = " post " >
          </html:form >
          <action path="/page"
          type="xxx.pageAction">
          <forward name="show" path="/page.jsp"/>
          </action>
          Thanks in advance
          Rachid.


There's little reason to use Struts infrastructure to set this up since you have no model, and the controller aspect is well-defined (just go to "NewProject"!). You're basically providing a link from one page to another, akin to doing an <a href>, and you wouldn't use Struts to do a simple link :).
I would just just use standard HTML.
If you're okay with using Javascript, this is the simplest:
<input type="button" onClick="document.location='NewProject'">
Or you can use a standard HTML form, as you've basically done already:
<form action="NewProject" method="get">
<input type="submit" value="Create">
</form>

MULTI ITEM ENTRY AT A TIME IN TABULAR FORM SUBMIT ONE TIME

MULTI ITEM ENTRY AT A TIME IN TABULAR FORM SUBMIT ONE TIME

No, it wasn't addressed to you but rather the OP - sorry for the confusion.
I try where possible to point out that without asking a sensible and clear question, posters are unlikely to get sensible and clear answers. A lot of time is wasted on this forum trying to get people to ask questions properly.

Issue with Form submit

Hi,
Currently i have a BSP application (page with flow logic) working. Where it has 5 input fields (numc) and based on the quatity entered (On click of SUBMIT button)the calculations are done and final amount is displayed in same screen.
Requirement: I need to remove the Submit button and enable the Form submit once the user enters value in any of 5 input fields and comes out of that field.
Currently i tried using JavaScript but with no success.
i tried attaching onblur event to my input field tag and the function associated with onblur event will do window.form.submit();
But i'm getting Error in Explorer as "'window.form' is null or not an object"
In Mozilla as "window.form has no properties"
I'm not able to post my code.. pls tell me how to do that
Please guide..
Thanks in Advance,

here is a simple sample application:
page attribute:
mess type string
layout
<%@page language="abap" %>
<%@extension name="htmlb" prefix="htmlb" %>
<htmlb:content design="design2003" >
<htmlb:page title=" " >
    <htmlb:form id="myform" >
      <htmlb:inputField id    = "IP1"
                        value = "<%= mess %>" />
< script for="IP1" event=on blur type="text/ j avascript">
          document. myform .submit();
       < /script>
            <br>
       <%= mess %>
    </htmlb:form>
</htmlb:page>
</htmlb:content>
oninput processing
data: ip type ref to cl_htmlb_inputfield .
ip ?= cl_htmlb_manager=>get_data( request = request
                                           name    = 'inputField'
                                           id      = 'IP1' ).
if not ip is initial .

Actions tab for form field properties

This question was posted in response to the following article: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/acrobat/pro/using/WSDFC888F9-219C-4b55-90E6-D316E2A85F08.w.htm l

I am working in Acrobat. I trying to create a form dealers will complete and submit. There will be no licensing issues. I have created a button and named it SUBMIT. In the Actions tab I have selected “Submit a form.” I have entered “mailto:[email protected]” under “Enter a URL for this link”. I have also selected “PDF The complete document” as the Export Format.
I saved the file but when I go to the Preview Mode and click the new “Submit” button, I am asked to “Save PDF as” from a menu. Even if I rename the file and click save, nothing happens. I am back in the Preview mode. If I click “Submit” again, I get the same “Save PDF as” routine.
I am baffled.

Problem with document.form.submit()

Hi
I have a URL like "http://blrkec30386:9080/abcd/MyServlet?Action.Admin.Init=Y&AppSignonBankId=024"
when i write this in a plane html file (as given below) ina form and submitt the same it works fine.. but if i include the same to a jsp (environment WSAD5) it does not work. and it tries to open the url "http://blrkec30386:9080/abcd/MyServlet?" that means if it finds a question mark(?) it stops there....ane idea why this is behaving like this???
given below is my code for plane html file.
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD HTML 4.0 Transitional//EN">
<html>
<head>
<title>Home Page</title>
</head>
<script language="JavaScript">
     function submitForm()
     document.form10.action=""http://blrkec30386:9080/ececWeb/BANKAWAY?Action.Admin.Init=Y&AppSignonBankId=024";
     document.form10.submit();
</script>
<body onload="return submitForm()">
<form name="form10" id="form10" ACTION="http://blrkec30386:9080/abcd/MyServlet?Action.Admin.Init=Y&AppSignonBankId=024" method="POST">
</form>
</body>
</html>

When you use the POST method for form submission, you should not have any parameters in the URL, the parameters are supposed to be in the body of the HTML request (one of the big differences between POST and GET requests). Your server may truncate the URL because they aren't supposed to be there, or it might move them to the body where they belong (do they show up in the processing servlet?). Some servers just pretend that they are okay and process them normally...
Adding parameters to a POSTing form like that should be avoided, though. What you should do is make hidden input fields with the values you want. (note, this ensures that the request is formatted correctly, but you will see no parameters on the url, which is the way it is supposed to be...)
<html>
<head>
    <title>Home Page</title>
    <script language="JavaScript">
        function submitForm()
            document.form10["Action.Admin.Init"].value="N";
            document.form10["AppSignonBankId"].value="025";
            document.form10.submit();
    </script>
</head>
<body onload="return submitForm()">
    <form name="form10" id="form10" action="http://blrkec30386:9080/abcd/MyServlet" method="POST">
        <input type="hidden" name="Action.Admin.Init" value="Y"/>
        <input type="hidden" name="AppSignonBankId" value="024"/>
    </form>

How do I a form submit without losing page parametes on other portlets?

I have a page with several portlets. How can I make one of the portlets do a form submit without losing page parameters in other portlets?
If I do a submit only the controls in the form I have submitted are passed which means I loose parameters that where passed earlier.
I looked at the code the portal uses for the next button and I see that it does a POST with the action being the complete current URL with existing parameters. When I do this I cannot access the form variables in my dynamic page.

There are 3 steps to the balancing act of image weight (file size) vs image quality
1) image dimensions (on screen height x width measured in pixels is all that counts). Smaller dimensions = smaller file size.
2) compressed file type (JPEG for photos, PNG or GIF for everything else). Choose the right file type for your image.
3) quality of the final compressed image - visually comparing the final image for "acceptableness" (less artifacts) vs final file size
There are plenty of tutorials online

Javascript form.submit() fails when imbeded in table

Before updating this worked fine, but now version 3.6.12 is failing to respond to javascript form.submit() inside a html select option control!
Operating system is Windows 7
The problem seems to be, because the form is imbeded inside a table.
Internet Explorer is still working ok, so looks like Firefox is now going to take second fiddle until / unless this is solved!
Yes, I know the easy way would be to remove the table! But then I have to use some other way of displaying data on the page!

Yeah, but it worked fine untill the last update!
I also have trouble with other javascript things, for example fckeditor no longer works in firefox.
I have been avoiding Internet explorer, but now it looks like I will be forced to use it, because it is still working with the things that I use on a regular basis...

Destination for Forms contents

I am making a form for a website that will allow the user to send his/her email and comments to a nightclub managment so they can in turn send out information on parties to all who submit theyre emails. I was practicing the technique in a practice file. I was able to create the text fields as well as the submit button. My only issue and question is how do i set up the submit button properly so when the button is pressed the information is sent to a specific email address.
Ill include the code and css.

The form's action needs to point to a server side script that processes the form contents. For starters check with your host to see if they have a script that will work with your hosting plan. And please search this forum for 'form mail' for more details.

Java Script: Form Submit issue.

Is there a way where I can submit two forms ?
Thats is submit 2nd form only when the first form is submitted.
I tried this it works.
function formSubmit(){
document.form1.submit(); //Submit First Form
alert(); //This will stall the execution thus form2 will not be submitted till I click on OK
document.form2.submit();
}But If I dont put an alert in between, only the second form is submitted.
If I put a delay of say 3 seconds in between then it will throw a SOCKET CLOSED error in the action event triggered due to first form submit.
Well Basically when the Alert pop's up the parent page "STALLS" and thus the form2 does not submit till I click on OK, Is there a way I can stall the browser/Parent JSP page using JAVA SCRIPT ??

Relax people... Ok I will move my querries else where :) ..
But whats wrong if somebody can provide me an answer ? I am sure most of you know java script , if you dont know then don't answer simple as that.
You do know that Sun did not create JavaScript, right? So the Sun forum sites may not be the best place to look for a JavaScript forum " {code}
You mean to say if something is not from sun I am not supposed to ask a question on that, I agree that this is JAVA Programming forum.
Peace,.
