I have made an image with text and numbers in it, I have also made a text
box that requires the text shown in the image to be entered to validate it.
Is there a way in which I can make the Submit button also validate before it
submits please.
I have looked in the properties for the button and cannot see how to do
this.
Thanks in advance

If you mean you're using a "Captcha" type thing, you need a server side
script to do the validation (checking that the code entered is correct).
www.webwizguide.com has such a script, but there are many others.
 
Hi Andrew,
Many thanks for your prompt response.
I tried Webwizguide's captcha but had problems incorporating it into the FP
Feedback page, any ideas about how this can be done please
Thanks in advance

Can't be done.
As Andrew said, you need a server side script (asp, asp.net, php,
perl/cgi etc) to process the form. FP extensions (as used by the
FrontPage feedback form) will not do the job.

For the FrontPage form, you will need JavaScript validation on the
captcha field, but this is easily overcome by switching off Javascript
in the browser (or spambot).

Web Wiz Guide also have a email-form (ASP script) that you can incorporate
that into.
