Entering captcha incorrectly changes URL and form loses design

Entering captcha incorrectly changes URL and form loses design

Hello. Apologies in advance if this is a stupid question... I have searched the various forum threads to find a solution, but nothing is found... so must mean it's just my error :)

My query relates to entering the captcha code incorrectly.

The current validations on the fields work fine, and if I don't enter the captcha at all when I press Submit, the field turns red, and I get my validation text. All works as it should. (see attachment #1)

However, if I enter the captcha incorrectly then press Submit, it begins to process the form, then it seems to append the original web address in the address bar, so it creates a type of loop, so my form has no css and looks terrible. (see attachment #2)

What have I not entered somewhere, for the form to remain on the current page, but just bring up a validation for the captcha?

web address for test form: testsite1/
web address for test form (after entering in captcha code incorrectly): index.php?invalid=true

I would appreciate any help you can give. I’ve managed to solve my other issues by your solutions within the posts, but I’m stuck on this one.
Thanks. Kristy.

Form now works

Hi Jason,

Thank you for your help. I changed the code as mentioned. It was still doing the extended redirect of the code, which took it to that awful looking page.

Played around until I entered the full web address index.php?invalid=true

and this fixed it by remaining on the page for me to re-enter the captcha code (and holding all the entered text). Tests work and I get my file upload and notification email. (hope this is ok to do...)

When it comes to building the real form for my client, i will try your code, as the directories will more straight forward. Might make the difference.

Thanks again. Appreciate your time.
