i hava a form on page that does not use model. this logic i cannot change.
i need to add capcha for the form. how to do it without model?
The fact is that i have a model with capcha rule and i need to validate capcha of that model on my form.
I don’t understand how capcha widget links with model. Can i load capcha for my model through ajax?
Captcha links with model by property ‘captchaAction’ in validation rules. Widget is build upon those validation rules - it takes url to action and basing on that widget is being built.
When you use code such as:
<?php $this->widget('CCaptcha'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'verifyCode'); ?>
your model must be instance of either CModel or CFormModel with following validation rule defined:
array('verifyCode', 'captcha', 'allowEmpty' => YII_DEBUG || !\CCaptcha::checkRequirements(), 'captchaAction' => 'urltocaptcha'),
and also with following property:
/**
* @var string
*/
public $verifyCode;
Please attach some codes of your forms/models/views related to this problem.
I’ll show you my example form used in my project using this captcha:
<?php
/**
* @class ContactUsForm
*/
class ContactUsForm extends CFormModel
{
/**
* @var string
*/
public $name;
/**
* @var string
*/
public $email;
/**
* @var string
*/
public $subject;
/**
* @var string
*/
public $body;
/**
* @var string
*/
public $verifyCode;
/**
* Declares the validation rules.
*/
public function rules()
{
return array(
// name, email, subject and body are required
array('name, email, subject, body', 'required'),
// email has to be a valid email address
array('email', 'email'),
// verifyCode needs to be entered correctly
array('verifyCode', 'captcha', 'allowEmpty' => YII_DEBUG || !\CCaptcha::checkRequirements(), 'captchaAction' => 'captcha/captcha'),
);
}
/**
* @return array
*/
public function attributeLabels()
{
return array(
'name' => Yii::t('misc', 'label_name'),
'email' => Yii::t('misc', 'label_email'),
'subject' => Yii::t('misc', 'label_subject'),
'body' => Yii::t('misc', 'label_body'),
'verifyCode' => Yii::t('misc', 'label_verify_code'),
);
}
}
and then in the view:
<?php if(CCaptcha::checkRequirements()): ?>
<div class="row">
<?php echo $form->labelEx($model,'verifyCode'); ?>
<div>
<?php $this->widget('CCaptcha'); ?>
<?php echo $form->textField($model,'verifyCode'); ?>
</div>
<div class="hint">Please enter the letters as they are shown in the image above.
<br/>Letters are not case-sensitive.</div>
<?php echo $form->error($model,'verifyCode'); ?>
</div>
<?php endif; ?>
