Safety problem

jannie 04 Mar, 2012
A strange thing happens. I have required fields, and if you don't fill them you can't send my form. But somebody succeded sending an empty form. Looks like there's a hack or something. How can this happen and how to manage this??
Thanks

Hi jannie,

The client side validation that shows the pretty bubble messages runs on JavaScript; if you browse to the form with JavaScript disabled as many spambots do then the validation does nothing at all. A Captcha will stop some bots; use serverside validation as your next layer of defence.
