This is confusing, in my opinion. It's hard to explain the difference between a login form and a page asking for your password, so it's probably worth just leaving this out. Any phisher worth his salt makes the page asking for a password look like a login form anyway.
Earlier quoted context omitted.
I guess you're not supposed to submit these kind of forms, even if empty.
Nah, I'm just lazy and didn't write any JavaScript to validate the inputs. Edit: yeah I would normally never use JS for validation.
Edit: although I suppose you can have an exception in this case :-)
You know what, this is a phisher's dream. Even if we could trust this website for not saving the data, the connection is a regular non-secure connection, so all somebody would have to do is catch some open wireless connections or similar.
View the HTML source. The credit card inputs aren't part of the form. They're never sent across the wire.

we have applied for an SSL certificate, from both GoDaddy and Comodo. they are both 'pending', since apparently, having 'credit card' in your domain is suspicious: http://ismycreditcardstolen.com/anti-phishing.jpg
Security is a strange beast.
I submitted no data and it still said I failed the test?

Interesting concept! I'd remove the negativity from the start. Putting "This is a test, you have failed it" right in front of folks is an instant turn-off, and might lead people away from your page instead of to the helpful content below. More bullet points. There's not a whole lot of text there now, but anything you can do to get the message across with fewer words is a win, especially when dealing with non-technica…
Thanks for the suggestions. If you want to make changes, you can fork http://github.com/pquerna/darwintest . Edit: I used the "you fail" message because I think it makes people more likely to remember it. I wanted to say something like "your credit card has been stolen. kthxbye." but that would have caused some false alarms. It's hard to have a memorable message without it causing offense or panic. Also on my TODO: a…
li { margin:12px 0; }I tried to find a way to pass the test and couldn't. Could someone explain to me how to pass?
