Thanks for your post, it seems there aren't many people using FT and Google reCaptcha or else there are but their methodology is a closely guarded secret. Clearly I'm missing something (some brain cells perhaps). I have followed your instructions, to the letter I think. My form.php has, above the <html> tag, from the FT docs:

PHP Code:
<?php

require_once("formtools/global/api/api.php");

ft_api_start_sessions();

$fields = isset($_SESSION["form_tools_form_data"]) ?

  ft_strip_tags($_SESSION["form_tools_form_data"]) : array();

?>

The <HEAD> section has, just before the closing </HEAD>:

Code:
<script src="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api.js" async defer></script>

Form declaration is:

Code:
<form action="http://eagletaxicabs.co.za/formtools/process.php" method="post">

Immediately below that I have:

PHP Code:
<?php ft_api_display_post_form_captcha_error(); ?>

At the bottom of the form, immediately before the submit button I have (data-sitekey obfuscated):

Code:
<div class="g-recaptcha" data-sitekey="xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"></div>

The /formtools/global/config.php contains (keys obfuscated):

PHP Code:
<?php 

// recaptcha keys

$g_api_recaptcha_private_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx";

$g_api_recaptcha_public_key = "xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx"; 

I know this is probably pointless but I modified the api.php call in process.php, commented out the include and replaced it with a require as per the FT docs:

PHP Code:
<?php 

// if the API is supplied, include it as well

$folder = dirname(__FILE__);

//@include_once("$folder/global/api/api.php");

require_once("$folder/global/api/api.php"); 

I modified the recaptcha_check_answer function calls in process.php and api.php to:

PHP Code:
<?php 

$resp = recaptcha_check_answer($g_api_recaptcha_private_key, $_SERVER["REMOTE_ADDR"], $recaptcha_challenge_field); 

I commented out the original recaptcha_check_answer function in recaptchalib.php and replaced it with:

PHP Code:
<?php 

function recaptcha_check_answer ($privkey, $remoteip, $challenge){

if ($privkey == null || $privkey == '') {

die ("To use reCAPTCHA you must get an API key from Recaptcha");

}

if  ($remoteip == null || $remoteip == '') {

die ("For security reasons, you must pass the remote ip to reCAPTCHA");

}

         //error_log($challenge, 0, "formtools/error_log.txt");

       //discard spam submissions

       if ($challenge == null || strlen($challenge) == 0) {

               $recaptcha_response = new ReCaptchaResponse();

               $recaptcha_response->is_valid = false;

               $recaptcha_response->error = 'incorrect-captcha-sol';

               return $recaptcha_response;

       }

$url="https://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/siteverify";

$result = file_get_contents($url."?secret=".$privkey."&response=".$challenge."&remoteip=".$remoteip);

//error_log($result, 0, "formtools/error_log.txt");

       $recaptcha_response = new ReCaptchaResponse();

       if ($result['success'] == "true" || $result['success'] == 1  || $result['success'] == TRUE) {

               //error_log("true", 0 , "formtools/error_log.txt");

               $recaptcha_response->is_valid = true;

       }

       else {

               $recaptcha_response->is_valid = false;

               $recaptcha_response->error = $result[1];

       }

       return $recaptcha_response;

}

...even kept your comments and formatting.
The form page loads correctly and I see the reCaptcha widget, which behaves as expected. The problem is that if I hit submit without having touched the reCaptcha, I don't get any error and the form is submitted as it would normally be. I don't think I have a PHP compiler/debugger with which to step through the code and troubleshoot. Am I missing something? Any help greatly appreciated. TIA
