    Once placed on your PHP page the Captcha object will look fairly close to what will be rendered in the browser (see example below). The Object will render BOTH the Captcha image and the text field for entering verification text.
    The Object's parameters can be modified through the Property inspector and PHP Captcha Server Behavior dialog.


PHP Captcha Propery Inspector

See PHP Captcha in action - try entering the verification text both correctly and incorrectly and observe the results.
Notice how page scrolls to the text field if the text has been entered incorrectly -this functionality as well is the part of the extension.

What's Captcha?

According to Wikipediacaptcha (an acronym for "completely automated public Turing test to tell computers and humans apart") is a type of challenge-response test used in computing to determine whether or not the user is human”.

Captcha is a small image with randomly generated text placed on a web form next to a designated text field. To submit the form user must type the text seen on the image into the text field. Thoroughly written server-side code will allow the form to be submitted only if the text has been entered correctly. To make it even more “spam-proof” the verification text can be slightly scrambled, rotated and/or appear over a patterned background.
Since no modern software can (reliably) read text from images, Captchas make it really hard (if not impossible) to automate form submission procedure.
