Using different type of Captcha - Q&A

    Hi,

    just found MachForm and looks good!

    However, I don't like using standard image based captchas and prefer to use a simple question and answer facility, e.g. 'what colour is a banana?' and then check for the answer being 'yellow' (case insensitive).
    I'd normally have four or five different questions from which one is picked at random.

    How can I incorporate this into all the forms created by MachForm?

    Thanks!
    P :)

    I'm afraid I can't help much with this one, since it would require a lot of customization. Sorry!

    Hi Yuniar,

    thanks for the reply.
    That's a real shame.... I was hoping to be able to easily integrate such a facility!

    Has anyone else managed this?

    Thanks

    Alternatively, would it be possible to display an image and check the response?

    I think the current CAPTCHA already behave that way (displaying an image and check the response).

    Or am I missing something?

    For example:
    Image #1 displays the question "What is 3+3 equal to?"
    Image #2 displays the question "which number comes after 12?"

    Response to image #1 must be '6' for validation
    Response to image #2 is '13' for validation

    If we could define an image to display and the corresponding response, then we would have a solution to the above problem.

    I am not familiar with how captchas work. Is the above do-able?

    Ahh.. I see.

    Hmm.. thanks for the idea.
    It is possible to do such thing, however it would require quite some work, since it's pretty complex.
