Hmm, looks OK to me in IE and FF. Perhaps you had a bad transfer that
got cached?

BTW, how goes the form submission verification?

Here too.  I suspect it's more than coincidence that the indicated
text ends exactly 1024 bytes into the content.

% curl http://www.postgresql.org/about/ | hd

Interesting...

I just hit every mirror, and they all respond correctly.

Perhaps the mirror was hit just as it was resyncing the page. Did this
happen just once, or more than once?

I saw that more than once in the last week.

I heard an interesting twist on this... rather than doing image
verification, you instead reject submissions that come from page that
don't contain a postgresql.org refferrer on the submission page. The
idea being the spam bots post directly to the submission page, but users
navigate thier way into the page. simple (and transparent to the user)
but apparently very effective for some folks that have implemented it.

Sounds like a good idea, except legitimate clients might not send it (I
don't know off-hand if any do offer a way to stop it, but it seems like
a sensible privacy option). Also I imagine it would be really easy to
add it to the spam bots, so I doubt it'll be long before it stops
working for them as well.

Regards, Dave.

It's also very broken for people who don't send Referer headers,
or who come from another legitimate site that links directly there.
