This doesn't apply specifically to CC software, but it is a programming question. I have been getting form submissions (from a php form processing script, not CC's form builder) that are filled with random characters. For example:



Is there a way other than a captcha to stop this type of submission?

Have you ever give CC's form builder a try?
Do you have the php script that is processing the data?

I have CC's, and I have used it. Love it!

As far as the other script, I have it. I just haven't figured out a way to stop the submissions with random characters.

Can you share the script? I can speculate what to look for and where to look but the actual script will make it easier.

I'd do it, but it's huge. It's not the typical short one-page script. It's part of a larger CMS I've been working on, so it has database ties and security checks and all sorts of stuff. I've been able to stop all unwanted form submissions except the ones with random characters like the one above.

Can you find where the form variable is being processed?
