In the 'get voting code' I have teh following;

<form action="http://www.blogectory.com/vote.php?action=vote&id=2" method="post">
<input type="text" name="theurl" class="bait" >
Rate this blog:
<select name="votevalue">
<option value="5">5 - Best</option><option value="4">4</option><option value="3">3</option><option value="2">2</option><option value="1">1 - Worst</option>
</select>
<input type="submit" value="Submit" name="processform" >
</form>



and this '<input type="text" name="theurl" class="bait" >' is inserting and additional text edit field.

Is that required?

Thanks

It appears if and only if you choose to enable to hidden field bait spam prevention at Admin -> Settings -> General. If information is entered in that field, that establishes that the submissions is spam.

Thanks. What exactly is 'hidden field bait'? I understand it is used to prevent spam - but any notes appreciated.
