A simple but secure PHP contact form with image validation (Captcha) for spam protection.

A contact form is one of the basic requirements of a website. However, most free contact form scripts available are not secure and are prone to hijack (one can use your form to spam people) and automated submissions (contact form spam using bots or software). Scary isn't it? It definitely is.

Using image validation (Captcha) eliminates (upto 99%) automated form submissions and form hijacking.

This php contact form script is light and very easy to install. You can see a demo here.

Suggestions are welcome

For any customizations, feel free to contact me.

Requirements:

* PHP - 4.3.0 or greater
* GD and Freetype support in PHP

Hi Vishal,

Captcha does help in minimizing spam.

I tested your form. I entered everything and hit the code reset to see if it would provide a new captcha code. It did. Code is easy to read. Form is user friendly.

Submission went well.

I got the "Contact Form

We have received your message. If required, we'll get back to you as soon as possible."

at the end. Seems to work smoothly.

Very nice.
