Someone has asked me to look into the possibility of using a Java applet as a CAPTCHA, but to avoid submitting a form and/or new page request, so ideally they would like a generated value from the applet to be available 'realtime' for submission with the rest of the form, or is submitted as the resulting value..
Is this possible?
So the html would look something along the lines of:
You can do it with javascript I'm pretty sure... let me look in my book and see if I can find anything for ya... hang on
Well, it says a few things about scripting with java, but it's a little over my head at the moment. It is possible (as far as i can tell) and it explains it as if you can just access the properties directly, but I think it must be a little more complicated than that.
Yes, it can be done. The project I am working on now (in PHP) is being revamped from a Java project that did use this. How it did, I know not. But I know it can be done.
