Help please with installing CAPTCHA
Hi Folks Stumbled across this form looking for answers. This may seem an odd place to ask this question once you read further it will become clear. The software I use (Serif WebPlus X2)has its own forum, but I do not think there is anyone there available to supply an answer. You can see my original post at http://forums.serif.com/showthread.php?t=55711 This is the question: My hosting company supplies CAPTCHA as one of their services, they also offer a sample script to start you off designing a form. I Have been trying to add the relevant bits of code to a WebPlus contact form but I cannot get it to work. I have designed a simple form with Dreamweaver and tested it on my server and it works, so I know there are no problems with any of the installation on the server or communicating with it This is the script supplied by the host:
<form action="http://changedforprivicy.co.uk/captcha/formnew.php" method="post"> <p><small><font face="Verdana">Your name:<br> <input type="text" name="name" size="25"> <p><small><font face="Verdana">Subject:<br> <input type="text" name="subject" size="25"> </font></small></p><p><small><font face="Verdana">Your email address:<br> <input type="text" name="email" size="25"> <br><br>Your message:<br> <textarea rows="10" name="message" cols="43"></textarea> <br><br> <img src="http://changedforprivicy.co.uk/captcha/CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=140&height=40&char + acters=8"><br><br> <label for="security_code">Security Code:</label><br><input id="security_code" name="security_code" + type="text"><br> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Send message"> </font></small></p> </form>
It should be possible to copy parts of this script and use it in the WebPlus form. I have managed to get the CAPTCHA to show in an attempt to combine it with a WebPlus form but it is not in the correct position and is not part of the form, the form ignores it. Anyone know how what should be done? Thanks Greg
