# Captcha Error

 * I am using the most recent version of this plugin v. 1.01 and for some reason
   if I add a Captcha field it breaks the form. As far as I can tell the entered
   data in the captcha field is not being parsed. With the correct data entered 
   I get this error message:
    “You seem to have missed or had mistakes in the following
   required field(s).” The form works great without the Captcha field. The issue
   seems to be that the capcha data isn’t being parsed although correctly entered.
   Why?
 * This is very strange since I have complete success with this plugin using the
   Captcha field at a *different domain* but same service provider (fatcow). The
   only different is, the one that isn’t working is at the root directory of the
   domain and the one that does work is a subdirectory.
    Suggestions? Thanks!

 * I wouldn’t say this issue was resolved but I did get the form working with the
   Captcha option included. What I did was export a form from a working FormBuilder
   form and import it to create a new form and that got it working. I have no idea
   why that made a difference since I very concisely recreated a new form with the
   exact same settings previously that didn’t work. Additionally I did contact tech-
   support for the domain and explained the issue, suggesting that I thought there
   was a permission problem on their end since the form wasn’t parsing the Captcha
   input. I noticed in the server’s error log that it was trying to write to a tmp/
   directory file that it said didn’t exist — which was also reflected in the php.
   ini file but after reloading the php.ini later the url to the correct directory
   was included. I’m guessing they corrected something on their end as I did on 
   my end. I’d rather this be more concise but will settle for the fact that it 
   is functioning. Hope this is helpful for others trying to use this plugin. Cheers!
