Phoca Forum

I did install PhocaGuestBook version 2.00 beta3 on Joomla 1.6.
I have an issue with the position of the Captcha part.

I did setup the Captcha for my guestbook as follows:
Form: Display Form: Hide
Security: Enable Captcha: reCAPTCHA

I did put some text above the Guestbook to instruct the visitor (in Dutch) to click on “Post Message” to post a new message. This is working well in Joomla 1.5 and PhocaGuestbook 1.4.4.

This you will see when it is wrong:


This you will see when it seems to be correct:


See the above pictures to see that part of the Captcha text that is shown and is on top of my instruction text.
The Captcha text is “Type the two words” with a input box under it.
The second picture is the layout when it is correct, with the Display Form not on Hide.
So if I don’t hide the Form, then it looks all OK.
But I want to Hide the Form, to use on the site.

Is there any solution for this issue?

Hi, can I see the site where this occurs, seems like some conflict with recaptcha library output ???

Do you get the same behaviour if looking at other site, e.g. here:
https://www.phoca.cz/joomlademo/phoca-guestbook
(while displaying recaptcha, I see no such problem , tested with chrome and firefox)

Hello Jan.

The website is at this moment not online, because I'm only developing it now.
It takes some time before it goes life, since a lot of extension are not stable enough for production.

Your demo link works fine for me. No issues seen.

I did check it with other captcha method and that goes good. Only reCaptcha fails partly as indicated.
TTF Captcha --> OK.
Math Captcha --> OK.
Standard Captcha --> OK.
reChaptha --> NOT OK.

If I remove the two lines of text, the same issue happens for reChaptcha.
I use and test my site development with IE 8.0 on Vista.

Update:
I did also test it with FireFox version 3.6.13, and then the problem was not seen.
So it seems to be an IE issue.

Hmmm, testing it with IE8 on the site (demo), see no problems

Maybe try to check all the extensions which are loaded on the site, maybe there is some css or js conflict with other extensions, maybe with template (it it is not the standard)
