Fighting Spam with CSS

Postby Prashant » Wed Jun 11, 2008 2:15 am

Recently i had come across an interesting article which offered to prevent spam by using css styles and few lines of programming. This seems very simple and too good to be true. IF it works i think we can even think of avoiding captchas. Either way it offers a new insight to fighting spam. What do you say guys?

Great find!

Why not we do a test with one of our clients who are getting SPAM mails? This is one of the things our clients are worried about also avoiding CAPTHA code will help conversions better!! Can someone find out how effective this is?
