Hi Jamie,
Sure, no problem! Here's how to do it for each type of form:
API forms:

POST forms:

Hi Ben, thanks, I've nearly got that all working here http://www.for-rent-nerja.com/contact.php
Only problem is it's allowing me to post a message without fillin in the captcha! I'm fairly sure i've covered every step but it's obvious i've done something wrong, just cant see what..

Has anybody else come across this problem when installing the captcha?
RE: Is it possible... - sstoney200 - Nov 16th, 2010
ahhh man! :/
I've tried it with and without the hidden field and double checked everything!

Hi Sstoney,
Sorry for not responding sooner!
Could you send me your code? (just zip up the page and email it to me at ben.keen@gmail.com). I'd like to take a look at it and test it out myself.

Ack! This is a bug. At the top of process.php, you'll find this line:
PHP Code:
@include_once("$folder/global/api/api.php");
Right before it, add this:
PHP Code:
$folder = dirname(__FILE__);
So, in total, the top section of code will be this:
PHP Code:
$folder = dirname(__FILE__);
// always include the core library functions
require_once("$folder/global/library.php");
// if the API is supplied, include it as well
$folder = dirname(__FILE__);
@include_once("$folder/global/api/api.php");
I'll include a fix for this in 2.1.0.

YOU THE MAN BEN! (SORT OF) HAHA
I changed the code and uploaded the process.php but when I try to access my contact page: http://www.for-rent-nerja.com/contact.php it is now saying
'The page isn't redirecting properly
Firefox has detected that the server is redirecting the request for this address in a way that will never complete.
* This problem can sometimes be caused by disabling or refusing to accept cookies.'
ARGH! lol
p.s. I did try removing and re-uploading process.php without the aforementioned changes but that didn't change the error so I'm thinking it's nothing to so with that!
RE: Is it possible... - Ben - Nov 24th, 2010
Huh! Well I'm puzzled... that fix works for me locally - and I certainly can't think of any reason it would cause that error you're getting.
Any chance I could get temporary access to your server so I log in and debug it directly? (If so, email me!)
