Prevent Spammers from using form

[Richard]

Is there a way to keep spammers out of your form submit. Also whats a good
way to spam the spammers. I'ds like to reply to the spam with a thousand
replys with just sending it once. Is that possible? Does anyone know of any
good sites to learn how to spam the spammers.

Look through the pages starting at

Note that one important decision you will have to make is: which server side
scripting technology (asp, asp.NET, PHP etc) to use? FrontPage extensions
will only give a very limited protection since any client side validation
relies on JavaScript - turn off javascript, turn off validation and
protection. Server Side scripting takes over from where JavaScript stops.

Also take a look at RE-CAPTCHA (http://recaptcha.net) - this also requires a
server side technology such as PHP, asp, asp.NET etc.

Spamming the spammers is not a good idea - most spam comes from botnets, any
email addresses in the spam belong to victims, not the spammers.
