FormSpamProtection
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
Tired of forms in your web application getting spammed? Captcha works but is a
|
|
pain. This plugin ensures a real person is submitting the form without
|
|
requiring anything from the user except that they have Javascript turned on.
|
|
|
|
This plugin uses the Hivelogic Enkoder, normally used to protect spambots from
|
|
harvesting e-mail addresses, to enkode a hidden field on the form. That field
|
|
is required when the user submits the form or they get an error.
|
|
|
|
To install:
|
|
./script/plugin install -x http://form-spam-protection.googlecode.com/svn/form_spam_protection/
|
|
|
|
To use: In your controller, just add:
|
|
protect_forms_from_spam
|
|
|
|
You can also specify :only or :except just like a before filter:
|
|
protect_forms_from_spam :only => :index
|
|
|
|
In fact, it is just a before filter. To protect only the form in one action
|
|
and the handling (but not the form) in another, do this:
|
|
before_filter :protect_form_from_spam, :only => :new
|
|
before_filter :protect_form_handler_from_spam, :only => :create
|
|
...though this is seldom necessary.
