form still sending without CAPCHA input (HTML 5 based page)

I've gone though the the instruction to implement the verify by it is still not enforced. Is there something missing in the code or assets?

BTW I'm using DW CS6 cloud version.... the striped down code is attached.

Rule number 1 when working with forms:

All Form Processing MUST occur on the page specified as the action in the form tag.

your form:

php:
<form  action="send_email.php" method="post" name="BAP_form" id="BAP_form">



specifies the send_email.php page as the action.

the server validation behavior to validate the captcha element must be added to the send_email.php page.

see this tutorial for detail on working with validation on forms that post to another page:

ok... could I create an if statement to redirect the user back to the original form to input capcha code again?

In the server validation behavior, set the Failed redirect to go back to the form page.

Sorry I meant, that if I used the"Validation Show If" with the "send_email.php" as the validation page. The message is shown straight away I want to show the message after the first attempt.

The validation failure is stored in a session variable, the session is cleared when the form submits successfully or the browser is closed.

if you are seeing the validation show if message on page load, it is because you have not closed the session or submitted the form successfully.

try closing the browser completely then testing again.

Silly Me, forgot to close the browser to clear the session. It works fine Thanks Jason.

P.S. Oh for anyone else reading this I made a slight adjustment to the Server Validation Like Entry. On the send_email.php there is no text field to compare so I used $_POST['Security_Code_1'] , this recalls the entry inputted on the capchaform.php.

yes, that is correct.

if you view the tutorial i linked to, they use the From Data binding tool to add the form bindings to the page.
