When you say "incorrect", what exactly do you mean? Complete gibberish? A small typo? If you get the known word right then you don't have to get the unknown word right (it's a 50/50 chance as to which word is the known word).

Ye neue.
Coming along nicely, I like it.

As 'shill le 2nd' already pointed out, reCAPTCHA is made to learn words. So if you enter one word correctly, the other can be incorrect. I believe that if you abuse this system too much it will start serving you two known words, though.

Does that just randomly pick an uploaded MP3 and play it?

Complete gibberish usually doesn't pass. However, I can get a small typo in both words (just did "relearn and" as "releern end" and it passed) and it passes fine usually.

I freaking love JavaScript, PHP, and AJAX. Dynamic webpages FTW.
thanks to vladh i just turned my httpd.conf from 2000+ lines to about 800

basically done if you use a webkit browser and (possibly) firefox, opera support is being worked (if it's possible, it's completely CSS3 and HTML) for Opera. IE (excluding 9 beta) is out of the question right now.

Yeah, if that bugs you, don't use reCaptcha. It sacrifices accuracy for the purpose of verifying OCR.

It doesn't really matter anymore; I have an email confirmation system in place now :haw:

Most OCR software will either pass perfectly or with typos on both. No CAPTCHA system is fool-proof of course, but it works pretty well for my blog.

Do you [b][i]really[/i][/b] need to verify users aren't bots?
Well, it's impossible to find a standalone jQuery slider [b]control[/b] (not an image slider!) plugin so... I caved and included jQuery UI with bugspray :saddowns:

What's wrong with jQuery UI, it looks quite nifty.
[QUOTE=turb__;22436877]What's wrong with jQuery UI, it looks quite nifty.[/QUOTE]
Yes it's nifty, it also gets fat and very, very quickly
[QUOTE=turb__;22434610]Do you [b][i]really[/i][/b] need to verify users aren't bots?[/QUOTE]
Yeah, my account system is for purchases and support tickets.
You can slim jQuery UI down in terms of how much code/images you're hosting/running using the package builder on their site. If you're only using one widget, you can disable the rest and it'll remove all the stuff you don't need.
[QUOTE=nullsquared;22437140]Yeah, my account system is for purchases and support tickets.[/QUOTE]
If you want someone to pass a reCAPTCHA they have to be really lucky and only get the word they don't know wrong. Also, if someone enters a lot of reCAPTCHAs from the same IP address, I'm quite sure it will start serving two words it's sure of.

Out of interest why are you using CSS3 so heavily but not fully using HTML5? You could easily use things like the <header> tag for the logo div etc.

That's actually a really good question, I have absolutely no idea. I just did what I'm used to doing, I'll probably make some changes soon.
Working on a [URL=http://test.htf.me/]portfolio page[/URL] for my game mods and random programming stuff. Hand coded it in that awesome editor notepad. Mixed in some HTML5 (the semantics not the audio/video/visual stuff) but also had to do some fallbacks to make sure it works in all browsers.
It is almost fully fluid (some padding and margins are in px still) and looks awesome in the browser on my HTC Desire :D
See this image for an example of how it looks on the phone:
[img_thumb]http://url.htf.me/bupqv[/img_thumb]
Overall I am not that happy about the design, I think it looks functional but boring. Any tips on making it look prettier would be greatly appreciated as I am more a coder than designer these days.
Edit: I used a jQuery plugin for the lightbox on the images if you did not already guess.

Why would he? *shrug*
[QUOTE=sseug;22443377]Why would he? *shrug*[/QUOTE]
Because using <header>,<nav>,<aside>,<article>,<footer> etc makes a lot more sense that <div id="header"> or whatever. Most browsers support this already.
IE being a notable exception, but he doesn't care about IE anyway.
Also for further info adding this to your <head> section will fix the above not working in IE anyway:
[php]<!--[if lt IE 9]>
<script src="http://html5shiv.googlecode.com/svn/trunk/html5.js"></script>
<![endif]-->[/php]

Oh, I know. But at the moment, those HTML elements aren't really particularly useful (unlike CSS3) and they require an extra bit of styling (and JS, for IE) as well, so it's just a matter of preference. You're right though, they make more sense, semantically.

Aren't they just regular divs with different names?
Check out my link above, only extra styling needed is display:block adding to the new HTML elements. You can get around the need for javascript in IE with some hacky CSS but I'd rather just include the javascript tbh, though I might add a noscript tag and do both.
You are right in it being a matter of preference, I just think the earlier people adopt it the easier it will be for them in the future.
