Math Challenge, captcha alternative. Forget about image captchas. Try Tryiimath :D

protected/extensionsSee the following code example for contact form:
// protected/views/site/contact.php: // replace captcha row: <div class="row"> <?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'verifyCode'); <div> <?php $this->widget('application.extensions.tryiimath.ETryiimath'); <?php echo $form->textField($model,'verifyCode'); </div> <div class="hint">Please enter the math result.</div> </div> // protected/models/ContactForm.php // replace verifyCode line: array('verifyCode', 'application.extensions.tryiimath.ETryiimathValidator'), // protected/controllers/SiteController.php // include TryiiMath Action: <?php Yii::import('ext.tryiimath.ETryiimathAction'); // ... // define action: public function actions() { return array( // captcha action renders the CAPTCHA image displayed on the contact page 'tryiimath'=>array( 'class'=>'ETryiimathAction', ), // ...

It's accesible for non js browsers, and for blocked js browsers. Not for blinds, of course :S
Of course it would be great, Totoloco. But the problem is, this extension is trying to draw numbers using ansi art (creating shapes with a combination of characters) and this does not help accessibility in any way. If anything, it makes things even harder! There are automated solutions to solve captchas for the blind, but they can't be used for this captcha. This method is quite secure, but inaccessible.
But, imagine accesibility without javascript.
Am I correct in assuming that this extension is trying to be accessible, based on this statement? If so, please tell me how I can make sense of "._. ._.: ;" as someone who is blind and uses a screen reader (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_reader). Imagine hearing, dot underscore dot semicolon dot underscore! :-)
I don't know about tryiimath in ffox4@mac. I try pastii.com.ar (with tryiimath) in ffox4@linux and I don't have any problem :S
trejder, did you try Get a new math? Math => 5 * 3
Does not seem to be working on FF 4 on mac. Any suggestions?
You say: "Forget about f***in & inaccesible captchas". Well... This one is from YOUR demo:
Please, tell me wise guy, what should I enter in above situation? Because I got a little bit confused! 53? S3? S*E?
A tip for future: Before you start yelling that captchas are f***in and inaccessible, first test your alternative solution if it has any errors! Big thumb down! :(
