Apart from being an Aussie I couldn't say. I am working on a less agressive method of spam filtering using the same algorythms. Instead of posting a picture it will just put a hidden input in the form containing a random sequence. If the script does not receive the sequence on submittal it will reject the post. I mainly decided this for people who, for some weird reason, do not have GD. Of course the simplest method at present is to change the name of the name input from gb_name to something as as the spammers send the data straight to the addentry page using the gb_name variable. If this variale is not present the guestbook will report an error.

Also if you peformed a search you would see this has already been discussed and the modification instructions posted in this forum somewhere. It would of still been near the top but as stupi dpeople keep coming here and asking questions that have already been asked as they are to stupid to use the search function all the important posts end up pages away.
Now if they had used search or even bothered just to look at the list of threads in this forum she would of seen a large thread with pretty much the same subject. HTML is disabled. www.carbonize.co.uk/reset.zip i a script to reset the username and password. If you still cannot delete the post send me the username and password and I will do it.
the script will be simple for me to write it's how to output it thats worrying me. Would you prefer that all you had to do was place <?php data['name']; ?> in your html where you wished the name to appear with data['comment'] where you want the message to appear or would you prefer that the script send the entire html formatting for it? I prefer the former method as it makes it easier to integrate into your sites look but requires multiple PHP entries in your page.
