What our clients say
It may be too early to declare total victory, but it seems that the SnapHost Captcha has reduced the spam from the contact page of our website. Before installing the Captcha we were getting one to ten obscene emails a week; it is now about two weeks after installing the Captcha, and we have not received any spa

Captcha Help, Questions and Answers


How to send form results to more than one email address?
Our free Captcha script doesn't support multiple emails. Please refer to our Web Form Management service which provides greater functionality and allows up to 8 email addresses.

My form submits only first time, then it keeps showing same Captcha numbers and letters. What is the problem?
Please make sure your browser doesn't store the captcha image in the cache. Add this code after the <head> tag of your page:
<meta http-equiv="cache-control" content="no-cache" />
<meta http-equiv="pragma" content="no-cache" />

When I submit my form I always get this error: "Form processing code is incorrect", even if I know exactly it was correct. What is the problem?
Please verify your code. Value of the "skip_SnapHostID" field must match id of the captcha image.

Is there a way to hide the "send to" email address so bots don't pick that up?
Our free Captcha script requires you to specify your email address in the HTML code; bots can pick it up. However with Web Form Management, your e-mail address(es) are stored in a secured database - they are not exposed to bots.

My forms are in French as well as English. Can your server take "multilingual" forms?
Yes. Please do not forget to place this tag inside <head> ... </head> in your HTML file:
<meta http-equiv="content-type" content="text/html;charset=UTF-8" />

How to make some fields "required"?
Required fields are not verified by the script. Please use client-side validation instead. See our example at Ready-To-Use Web Forms.
The validation is done by JavaScript. The information is validated before the form is submitted.

Do I have to use POST method in my form?
No, the script will work with both POST and GET methods.

Does it matter if my website is on UNIX or Windows platform?
You don't need to worry about your server OS - the script is located on our server.

I don't want to receive info from some of my form's field. What should I do?
Field names started with "skip_" will not be sent; use this for submit buttons, etc.
For example: name="skip_submit".

How to get new "skip_SnapHostID"?
If you want a new "skip_SnapHostID" you need to refresh (click F5 or Cntrl+F5) this page. A new code will be automatically generated.

How many forms can I use on my website?
You can use as many forms on your website as you want.

Do you have any examples of forms which I can copy and use?
Yes, please see our Ready-To-Use Web Forms and our demo pages: Demo 1 and Demo 2.

What is CAPTCHA?

CAPTCHA is a contrived acronym for "Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart".

It is a program that protects websites against bots by generating and grading tests that humans can pass but current computer programs cannot. Humans can read distorted text on a picture, but current computer programs can't.

What is special about our CAPTCHA script?

Our script resides on our server, thus you don't need to do any server-side implementation, it doesn't depend on your server Operating System.

No registration required, you can just copy the code and use it on your page.

Unlike most CAPTCHAs we destroy the session when the correct input is entered, thus it's impossible to automate requests reusing the session.

Our script can verify email address entered and send a copy to your visitor if you wish - see Captcha Advanced.

Ask us and we review your form and fix it if you made a mistake - it is also free!
