I truly believe I followed the instructions, but...

My domain is www.testing.hisplaceresort.net
(it is not an actual web page, just an asp file that sends my emails when Submit is clicked...)
My Captcha files are located at www.testing.hisplaceresort.net/Captcha
My website is at MyHosting.com on Windows 2008 servers running IIS 7
 
What I did:
 
1.) on the form2.asp page, I inserted:
<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA configuration -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_configuration.asp" -->
at the very top of the page.
 
2.) put the following code where I wanted the Captcha image to come up in my form, on the same form2.asp page:
<!-- include the Web Wiz CAPTCHA form element -->
<!--#include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_form_inc.asp" -->
 
(The captcha image does show correctly on my form2.asp.  And, you can get a new image by clicking the link.  so, it's partly working, anyway.)
 
3.) in the /cgi-bin/sendmail.asp file, I put the following code at the very top:
<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA configuration -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_configuration.asp" -->

<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA form processing -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_process_form.asp" -->
4.) put "incorrect.htm" in the captcha configuration file as the page I want to go to if entry is incorrect.
 
5.) got all files and the entire captcha directory uploaded to my server.
 
6.)  It doesn't work.
 
Note:  I had it partly working.  Before adding the code to the sendmail.asp, the captcha image was working on the form.  But, no matter what you did, whether you entered anything at all in the captcha field, or if you entered it incorrectly, the form processed as if you had entered the code correctly.  (The sendmail.asp file has a Response.redirect to the page ../thankyou.htm, after you fill out the form and click submit.)
 
Then, realizing that it was my sendmail.asp that was actually my "form Processor", I added the lines of code referenced in #3 above.  (I was a little confused on that, thinking my form and my form processor were one in the same, which of course they were not.)
 
Once I did that, the form doesn't process at all when you click submit.  I get the http error.  I think this tells me the problem is with the code I put in my sendmail.asp file.
 
I'm completely stumped.  Any suggestions???

I think you will find that it is a directory issue since the processing form is actually in your cgi-bin directory (which is outside of your root directory I assume) and therefore it is looking in the wrong place, and hence why it does not find the includes file

I thought it might be too.
I changed my form2.asp to reference "sendmail.asp" instead of "cgi-bin/sendmail.asp", and then I put a copy of sendmail.asp in the root directory.
I'm still having the same issue.
Any other thoughts?

Please feel free to try anything you want on that testing subdomain.  That's what it's for.  I have copies of everything on my local machine, and my real website is up, so you can't mess up anything that I couldn't put back.

Thank you!

Okay - what I did was upload the software to my own website and installed and modified the contact form I currently use
If you would like to verify it is working - goto:
http://www.justcheck.co.uk/contact.asp

and then complete the form and send it
Then we can look at what is different on your site Wink

OK.

That form worked.  I'm assuming from your post that you used my sendmail.asp. 

So, what do we look at now?
 
Thanks!

As you can see (I've blotted out the details) the form processed correctly:



If you had entered say a wrong code you would have been directed to this page:
http://www.justcheck.co.uk/contact_fail.asp

Sorry it seems a bit basic but I was rushing LOL

How I did it -
1. Install Captcha into root directory where you might have your normal folders ie. images, navbuttons whatever, and all your normal webfiles
2. I had a page called contact.asp which had the form on and at the top of that page you put:
<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>
<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA configuration -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_configuration.asp" -->

Your form obviously then goes to say a file called send_email.asp

And at the bottom of your contact form, but within the form itself
<!-- include the Web Wiz CAPTCHA form -->
<!--#include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_form_inc.asp" -->

Then on the send_email.asp file at the top

<%@LANGUAGE="VBSCRIPT" %>
<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA configuration -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_configuration.asp" -->
 
<!-- Include file for CAPTCHA form processing -->
<!-- #include file="CAPTCHA/CAPTCHA_process_form.asp" -->          
<%

'The line below will prevent the rest of the file from processing if the CAPTCHA code is entered incorrectly
'To use the line below remove the comment (') quote mark from in front of the line
If blnCAPTCHAcodeCorrect = False Then Call stopProcess()
   
%>

If you then edit the file in the captcha folder called:
CAPTCHA_configuration.asp and see this bit below

'***** This is the name of the page you want users redirected to if CAPTCHA is entered incorrectly *****
'Place the page to be redirected to between the quote marks below
Const strIncorrectCAPTCHApage = ""

In my case I put in between the speech marks
Const strIncorrectCAPTCHApage = "/contact_fail.asp"

The / bit shows that the page contact_fail.asp is outside the CAPTCHA folder

I hope that helps Julie. If you have any questions please email or PM me and I can help you out further
