Form has several validations, still receiving spam

webcase 16 Sep, 2013

Hi all,

I recently built a form with several validations.
For example:
- some text fields require text only
- some fields require digits only AND are limited to 2 character input.
- one field has the 'email address' validation
- and I use the built-in captcha.

Still I recieve spam mail.
All fields are loaded with all kinds of characters, in spite of the form settings.

What can I do to fix this?

Thanks in advance.

Hi Maurice,

Please see this FAQ - unfortunately nothing that you have described will stop a human spammer with JavaScript turned off :-(

You may need to use a combination of spam-stoppers tuned to the kind of spam you are seeing.
