Hi
I wondered if any one could help. I have successfully used the image
captcha by adding it the simple way which puts the code on the next
page following pressing the submit button but ideally I wish to have
in included in my form.
I have tried to follow the instructions without any success.

The script it says I should add is as follows :-

Editing perl (.pl or .cgi) file
If you have perl powered script wich processes your web form, use this
code.

1. Open the perl file which processes your form (How do i find the
file that processes the form?).
2. Copy the code shown below ('Perl code:')
3. Past it after the line '#!perl' or '#!/usr/bin/perl' in the
beginning of your file.

Perl code:

###################################################
# Code provided by http://www.protectwebform.com
use LWP::Simple; use CGI; use URI::Escape;
CGI::ReadParse();
my $pwf_message = "The image code you have provided does not match the
actual one. Hit the 'back' button of your browser and input the
correct code please.";

if(length($in{'protectwebformcode'}) > 30) {
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n".$pwf_message;
die;
}

my $protectwebformresult =
get("http://protectwebform.com/verify01?vui=19008&vp=tq1hsv74gcmb&ri="
. uri_escape($ENV{'REMOTE_ADDR'}) . "&vs=" .
uri_escape($in{'protectwebformcode'}));

if($protectwebformresult =~ m/<authorization status="0"/) {
print "Content-type: text/html\n\nWarning. You are not authorithed
to use image protection provided by http://www.protectwebform.com.
Read http://www.protectwebform.com FAQ for more information";
}
if($protectwebformresult !~ m/<verification result="yes"/) {
print "Content-type: text/html\n\n".$pwf_message;
die;
}
# End of code provided by http://www.protectwebform.com

I have it on my html page not problem but I have added the above text
to my perl form and it will not post it (send it).
My Perl form is as follows

#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
#
# NMS FormMail Version 3.14c1
#

use strict;
use vars qw(
$DEBUGGING $emulate_matts_code $secure %more_config
$allow_empty_ref $max_recipients $mailprog @referers
@allow_mail_to @recipients %recipient_alias
@valid_ENV $date_fmt $style $send_confirmation_mail
$confirmation_text $locale $charset $no_content
$double_spacing $wrap_text $wrap_style $postmaster
$address_style
);

BEGIN
{
$DEBUGGING = 1;
$emulate_matts_code= 0;
$secure = 1;
$allow_empty_ref = 1;
$max_recipients = 5;
$mailprog = '/usr/lib/sendmail -oi -t';



I obviously haven't included the total form.

I have tried adding it directly after
#!/usr/bin/perl -wT
I have deleted the wt I have tried adding it after #!/usr/bin/perl
-wT
#
# NMS FormMail Version 3.14c1
# and other variations without success. I must be doing something
silly

my html page includes the line <FORM "/cgi-bin/add_entryvff.pl"
method=post onSubmit="MM_validateForm('Telephone
Number','','R','email','','RisEmail');return
document.MM_returnValue">

add_entryvff.pl being the name of my perl form.

Any ideas ????

Cheers
maggie
