Form not working when enabling anti spam.

Jim 17 Nov, 2008
Hi !

First i'd like to thank the developer(s) for this joomla extension.
Thank you for this great and free extension! 🙂

The form i have, worked flawlessly until i started getting spam and i decided to enable the Anti Spam.
I enabled Anti Spam on the form, put
<div  class="form_item"><div class="form_element cf_captcha"><label class="cf_label">Image Verification:<br><br></label><span>{imageverification}</span></div>
on the form's code but every time i try to submit a form, it redirects me to a page saying this:

There is no form with this name or may be the form is unpublished, Please check the form and the url and the form management



It doesn't matter if i type anything at all in the form's fields/image verification text field, it keeps giving me this error.
If i disable Anti Spam, it works again and redirects me to the correct page.

Thanks everyone in advance 🙂

Hi Jim,

Can I see your form somewhere ? do you have anything in the Action URL field ?

Hi Jim,

Please check your SEF setup: the form submit url is http://www.tiven.org/main/index.php?option=com_chronocontact&task=send&chronoformname=contactme but this gives a message

You are not allowed to access this URL

Hi Bob.

What SEF is ? 🙄

there is something wrong, it works sometimes and others not, do you have any <form> tags in your code ? which chronoforms version is this ?



Hi Max.

I have
<form method="POST" enctype="application/x-www-form-urlencoded" action="/macrocosm.pl?page=projects&M_page=contact" style="margin: 0px; padding: 0px;">
in the code. I'll try to make a new form today when i return at home, and update ChronoForms as well. I don't remember which version it is but it's few weeks/months old.

Thank you.

Hi Jim,

Remove any <form . . > or </form> tags from your form HTML, ChronoForms creates it's own tags and any extra tags give this error.
