I use the a simple form. The webwiz code appears correctly. If I fill out the form fields and get to the code field and enter the wrong code the press the submit button - the form mails the form to me. The form is not stopping the spammer. Please give me a hint or directions for getting the "notorrect code page" to work. Or just email me your examples that I can look at.

Thank you

The CAPTCHA software comes with a working example.

There are two installation intructions the basic and advanced, to start with use the basic install intructions.

If you are getting emails even if the code is entered incorrectly then it suggest that you are not checking to see if the CAPTCHA code is entered correctly before running the code to send the email.

You need to ensure that the code to check the CAPTCHA image is run before any code that sends the email.
