I am using combination of php+jQuery for captcha validation and later sending mails and do other stuff. The pseudo code is something like this:
captcha_code = jQuery.post(.....execute captcha script and get status)
if(captcha_code == "correct"){
send_mail_using_php_script;
}
Now I have no idea whether spammers can directly execute the "send_mail_using_php_script". Do they? If yes, then shall I move captcha validation in send_mail_using_php_script to make it more safer? Is there any other safer method?
