That ain't a captcha, baby, that's just text!


Check out the "captcha" on the Broadcasting & Cable Online website:

Doesn't it look a bit... well... simplistic? It doesn't even look like a JPG or GIF. And since I was able to highlight the individual characters... harrumph! A View Source revealed:

</style><script type="text/javascript">
document.write('<div id="kphgathsyfwf">');
document.write('<span class="nmphehxddlno">K</span>');
document.write('<span class="sepbxvbjrcva">C</span>');
document.write('<span class="brtdrtazqxkk">I</span>');
document.write('</div>');
</script>
<p><b><span class="ihtfw">Before submitting this form, please type the characters displayed above:</span></b></p>

Heh. I'm sure the spammers will never figure that one out.
