Peter J. Farrell has taken my open source CAPTCHA component to the next level -
It's highly configurable (way more than mine is), and comes with a slew of new features. His documentation is also better than mine.
I'm still going to keep my open source captcha on my site, but if you are looking for something a bit above and beyond what i wrote, definitely check out what Peter has done.
Here is the initial release of my Captcha component .
It is a reworking of the code I use on this site to output my Captcha images, into a nice CFC that has two public methods -
The code here is pretty much 'as is'. The CFC should be relatively self explanatory, but I have provided examples in the zip file on how to use the CFC both ways.
If you have any feedback, feel free to send me an email .
