The ideal captcha would not be visual at all. For example, on another |
| 26 |
site I am involved with, which is not quite online yet, we are talking |
| 27 |
about implementing tseveral levels of captcha such as: |
| 28 |
|
| 29 |
- a math captcha (you will be asked to solve a simple math problem) |
| 30 |
- a word captcha (fill in the missing letters of a word) |
| 31 |
- a phrase captcha (complete the phrase) |
| 32 |
|
| 33 |
Could something like one or more of these be possible? |
