Captcha & Recaptcha messed up when showing

earthdog 03 Sep, 2011
I got recaptcha to work just fine and captcha also.

My problem is that recaptcha falls over my other form elements.

I am using the wizard to create the form, and Joomla v1.7

What am i doing wrong?

Hi earthdog,

Check the page HTML & CSS to see what is happening?

Please post a link to the form so I can take a quick look.

you know what it did the trick?

changed this in joomla.css (using a rockettheme template):

/* #recaptcha_widget_div {position: absolute;top: -140px;} */
#recaptcha_widget_div {top: -140px;}

removed the podition property and it is fine..But is this the correct way?

Hi earthdog,

That's fine. If you update the template you may get the same problem.

You could over-ride it in the form CSS by specifying a 'tighter' selector but it's probably not worth the trouble unless you find that you are getting problems with ReCaptcha in other parts of the site.
