That worked great. Bots can't select options on your form so if you already have an area where the person is supposed to choose something, then you can Exit from processing the form in your Action Script. Great stuff.

One tip though: use the same css classes on your input block elements (div's, p's, whatever), but use one *extra* class on the honeypot input. For instance: class="input honeypot". If the bot is clever enough to ignore inputs with different classes, this could fool him. The honey pot method has worked well for me.

Sorry about my simple english Cu Nev Hi @ll

But only till somebody finds out. You cannot use CAPTCHA also too reliably. Read my article Good idea.

It does not prevent all spam, since spam still get submitted anyway (or sent for moderation). It definately does not prevent "deliberate" spam typed out individually by users who want to proof this wrong. This may work, until they found out about this trick.
