I'm using CAPTCHA on a couple of my sites but have 2 issues/questions.

First, I entered a page to load if the code is not entered correctly. It's actually a copy of the contact form. The problem is that the information will have to be completely reentered. Is there a way to just have the user try again while keeping the contact informatin intact?

Secondly, the form_inc page is throwing out 3 xhtml validation errors. I fixed 2 of them but don't understand how to fix the third one. The line is:

document type does not allow element "table" here; missing one of "object", "applet", "map", "iframe", "button", "ins", "del" start-tag.

…width="100%" border="0" cellspacing="1" cellpadding="3">

Thanks for your help!

Having the form refill itself depends on how you setup CAPTCHA to work and your own code. How I would do it is have the form submit back to the same page, if the CAPTCHA fails the validation check display a message to the user and refill the form elements with the data that has been posted back to the server.

On your second question, on editing the CAPTCHA table it looks like you have removed the start tag < of the table.

Bruce,

Thanks for the input. Can you help with your suggestion? how can I refill the form elements with the data?

For the second part, I haven't removed the start tag. The exact line is:

Since I'm using the downloaded code, can you confirm this by testing your working CAPTCHA XHTML at

http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer" rel="no follow - http://validator.w3.org/check?uri=referer

Thanks!
