reCaptcha plugin for Blosxom

After looking for some appropiate way to deal with comment spam I found reCaptcha. They provide a nice form presenting a capture image. Their service is provided for free, all you need is to register. They even have an API that has all you need. It gets even better: there's already a Perl module for using this API. Having almost all pieces in place I decided to write a little Blosom plugin for using reCaptcha. The plugin was tested with the writeback module, though I'm sure it works with others as well.

All you need to do is to

  • drop the plugin in your plugin directory, make it executable.
  • add your recaptcha keys to the module, add the form to your writeback module by placing $recaptcha::form and $recaptcha::msg in your writeback form
  • check the recaptcha result in the writeback module using recaptcha::validate()

Details can be found in the module's perldoc. You can download the module here. Leave a comment if you have any questions...

Drehwurm im Parkhaus


Heute das Parkhaus im Hansa in Malmö benutzt. Nach gefühlten 13 Umdrehungen in der Auffahrt zum ersten Parkdeck erhält man diesen Hinweis: Noch zwei Runden bis zum ersten Parkdeck. Leute bei Laune halten ist alles.
