[TYPO3-realty] Spam problem, need easy solution

[Christoph Stadler]

so i'm trying to get this to work: http://www.myjqueryplugins.com/QapTcha

this is how far i've progressed (if you can call it that):

First, include the CSS & jQuery files in the main Typo3 HTML template 
(i'm using a Templavoila template so i'm putting it there)

<!-- QapTcha CSS -->
<link rel="stylesheet" href="QapTcha.jquery.css" type="text/css" />

<!-- QapTcha and jQuery files -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery-ui.js"></script>
<script type="text/javascript" src="jquery.ui.touch.js"></script> <!-- 
Added in v2.5 for iPhone and iPad -->
<script type="text/javascript" src="QapTcha.jquery.js"></script>


Then in typo3conf/ext/realty/pi1/tx_realty_pi1.tpl.htm
at the beginning of the contact form, right after the

<fieldset class="tx-realty-pi1-fieldset">
         ###CONTACT_FORM_ERROR###
<form method="post" action="">


I put this:

<div class="tx-realty-pi1-field" id="QapTcha"></div>

Then ...

After

<!-- ###CONTACT_FORM_WRAPPER_LAW### -->
</form>
</fieldset>


I add

<script type="text/javascript">
     $(document).ready(function(){
         $('#QapTcha').QapTcha({disabledSubmit:false});
     });
</script>

Then i guess i need to put somewhere in

typo3conf/ext/realty/pi1/class.tx_realty_contactForm.php

the code from the validation and there i don't know how to do that :(
