reCAPTCHA for Seaside (2.9)

Hi!

I just finished a reCAPTCHA component for Seaside.
You can read about it here [1] and testdrive it here [2].

The HTTP part of the verification code looks a bit hairy but I
understand the desire to avoid the abomination that is HTTPSocket. The
thing is that while the iframe uses HTTPS the verification doesn't.
You might want to give the Curl Plugin [1] a try.

Besides that: cool, people writing libraries for Seaside is a good thing (tm)

:D

I tried to use httpPostDocument: url  args: at.al. but I got no response using them. There should be a large fat warning
sign.

Ah, yes. Hm, the first is the client connection while the second is the server connection. An attacker could sniff the
private key on the server connection, so I guess you are right about protecting this connection also via HTTPS.

I will have a look. My aim was though to keep dependencies at a minimum.

I guess the more building blocks, the better for seaside. :)
