How to protect your form with BasicCaptcha
STEP 1:
Replace your tag <form...> with the following code in blue:
<form action="https://www.SnapHost.com/captcha/send.aspx" method="post" id="myform" target="_top">
<input type="hidden" id="skip_WhereToSend" name="skip_WhereToSend"
value="your@email.com" />
<input type="hidden" id="skip_Subject" name="skip_Subject"
value="SnapHost.com script" />
<input type="hidden" id="skip_WhereToReturn" name="skip_WhereToReturn"
value="www.yourdomain.com/thankyou.htm" />
<input type="hidden" id="skip_SnapHostID" name="skip_SnapHostID"
value="NZ86K6DRYY53" />
STEP 2:
A) Change your@email.com to your email address, where the data is to be sent.
B) Change SnapHost.com script to the desired subject of your email message.
C) Change www.yourdomain.com/thankyou.htm to your web page address where the user is to be directed after submitting the web form.
This can be a page saying "Thank you for taking the time to fill out our web form", for example.
STEP 3:
Add this table in blue before your "Submit" button
(anywhere between <form...> and </form>):
<table cellspacing="0" border="0" cellpadding="8"
style="background-color:#ffcc66;">
<tr><td colspan="2" style="padding-bottom:1px;">
<a href="http://www.snaphost.com/captcha" alt="captcha work" title="captcha work"
>captcha work</a></td></tr>
<tr valign="bottom"><td>
<a href="#" onclick="return ReloadCaptchaImage('CaptchaImage');"><span style="font-size:12px;">reload image</span></a><br />
<a href="http://www.snaphost.com/captcha/ProCaptchaOverview.aspx"><img id="CaptchaImage"
alt="protection against spam bots" style="border-width:0px;"
title="protection against spam bots"
src="https://www.SnapHost.com/captcha/CaptchaImage.aspx?id=NZ86K6DRYY53" /></a>
</td><td>
<br /><i>Enter Captcha code</i><br />
<input id="skip_CaptchaCode" name="skip_CaptchaCode" type="text"
style="width:130px; height:48px; font-size:38px;" maxlength="6" /><br />
</td></tr></table>
<script type="text/javascript">
function ReloadCaptchaImage(captchaImageId) {
var obj = document.getElementById(captchaImageId);
var src = '' + obj.src;
obj.src = '';
var date = new Date();
var pos = src.indexOf('&rad=');
if (pos >= 0) { src = src.substr(0, pos); }
obj.src = src + '&rad=' + date.getTime();
return false; }
</script>
VERY IMPORTANT NOTES:
- Test your form! It's quick, easy and very important to test your form properly.
Discover how to test forms on this page in the section "5. Testing the form!"
- Make sure you whitelist our email address
,
our SMTP servers *.snaphost.com and *.gowebdirect.com
in your local spam filters (if you use any).
Also do this for external anti-spam systems such as Boxbe, etc. (if you use any),
and finally in Gmail, Hotmail, AOL or other free email services (again, if you use any).
Otherwise you may miss messages sent by your form and important script updates.
- FrontPage users should read the instructions
on this page in the section labeled
"6. FrontPage forms and our Captcha protection".
- We'll send you a Website Key in a day or two, so you can do more with your form.
