For a comprehensive step-by-step integration guide please see our jQuery Captcha Plugin Integration Guide.
The guide covers the integration with the following backends:
To give you a hint how jQuery Captcha Plugin works we pasted bellow a few, not necessary up-to-date (and mostly frontend related), excerpts from the Integration Guide.
npm install jquery-captcha --save
<script src="node_modules/jquery-captcha/dist/jquery-captcha.min.js"></script>
Endpoint configuration depends on which technology you use in the backend.
$(document).ready(function() {
// DOM ready
var captcha = $('#botdetect-captcha').captcha({
captchaEndpoint:
'https://your-app-backend-hostname.your-domain.com/simple-captcha-endpoint.ashx'
});
});
$(document).ready(function() {
// DOM ready
var captcha = $('#botdetect-captcha').captcha({
captchaEndpoint:
'https://your-app-backend-hostname.your-domain.com/simple-captcha-endpoint'
});
});
$(document).ready(function() {
// DOM ready
var captcha = $('#botdetect-captcha').captcha({
captchaEndpoint:
'https://your-app-backend-hostname.your-domain.com/botdetect-captcha-lib/simple-botdetect.php'
});
});
<div id="botdetect-captcha" data-captchastylename="yourFirstCaptchaStyle"></div>
<input id="yourFirstCaptchaUserInput" type="text"/>
$('#yourFormWithCaptcha').submit(function(event) {
// the user-entered captcha code value to be validated at the backend side
var userEnteredCaptchaCode = captcha.getUserEnteredCaptchaCode();
// the id of a captcha instance that the user tried to solve
var captchaId = captcha.getCaptchaId();
var postData = {
userEnteredCaptchaCode: userEnteredCaptchaCode,
captchaId: captchaId
};
// post the captcha data to the /your-app-backend-path on your backend
$.ajax({
method: 'POST',
url: 'https://your-app-backend-hostname.your-domain.com/your-app-backend-path',
dataType: 'json',
contentType: 'application/json; charset=utf-8',
data: JSON.stringify(postData),
success: function(response) {
if (response.success == false) {
// captcha validation failed; reload image
captcha.reloadImage();
// TODO: maybe display an error message, too
} else {
// TODO: captcha validation succeeded; proceed with your workflow
}
}
});
event.preventDefault();
});
The userEnteredCaptchaCode
and captchaId
values posted from the frontend are used to validate a captcha challenge on the backend.
The validation is performed by calling the: Validate(userEnteredCaptchaCode, captchaId)
.
// C#
SimpleCaptcha yourFirstCaptcha = new SimpleCaptcha();
bool isHuman = yourFirstCaptcha.Validate(userEnteredCaptchaCode, captchaId);
' VB.NET
Dim yourFirstCaptcha As SimpleCaptcha = New SimpleCaptcha()
Dim isHuman As Boolean = yourFirstCaptcha.Validate(userEnteredCaptchaCode, captchaId)
SimpleCaptcha yourFirstCaptcha = SimpleCaptcha.load(request);
boolean isHuman = yourFirstCaptcha.validate(userEnteredCaptchaCode, captchaId);
$yourFirstCaptcha = new SimpleCaptcha();
$isHuman = $yourFirstCaptcha->Validate($userEnteredCaptchaCode, $captchaId);
