Home: Perl Programming Help: Beginner: mechanise and captcha

gerble1000 User May 26, 2012, 4:23 AM Post #1 of 5 (2412 views) mechanise and captcha Can't Post hi guys i want to get a register form but the form has a captcha inside. what i need to do is forward this login form to user with captcha image and then when they submit it my script will do the submiting. i basicly want my script to be a middle man so i can fill out all the useless crap on the forms :) how would you go about this

I would ideally need to view the form you are attempting to process to ensure the best approach is taken. Chris
