Contact Form In Html With Captcha
We receive many requests from people wishing to insert a secure contact form with a validation script on their web pages. The benefit of having a secure contact form with a captcha is that it prevents automated bots from sending spam mail to the recipient of the form results. The captcha script on the contact form generates a unique security code that only a human can enter manually and if they get it wrong, the script generates another code. Using a secure contact form with captcha can eliminate upto 90% of spam or junk mail.
The contact form with captcha is one that is provided with courtesy by the webhelp dot com site. However, in their original version only the IP address and comments were displayed in the form results. We configured the form to include the IP address, email address, name of person and comments. The contact form uses three PHP files and your webhost must support PHP. Most web hosts do usually support PHP in their standard hosting packages.
If they don't support PHP then switch to Linux. The switch to Linux should not cost you anything and will make no difference to the appearance of your website. The three PHP files are the contact.php, mailer.php and verificationimage.php script. The PHP contact.php file will contain a link to a verification image, the link to image is actually a link to a php file named 'verificationimage.php' generating the image, users will have to fill the image code inside a form field once with the other message contents (subject, sender email, etc) then click submit, if the code in the image is not correct then the message is not sent and the user is asked to fill the image verification code (captcha) again, the other form fields remain filled. If the form has been filled correctly then the user will be redirected to a 'successful thankyou' page named 'mailer.php'. In this file (mailer.php) be sure to replace the default email address for your own email address, so that the form results are sent to your specified email address.
