The reCAPTCHA solution


The first method for integrating a CAPTCHA system into your website is to use FuelPHP's recaptcha package. This is a convenient solution, since there is not much to be implemented and it allows you to integrate a well-known CAPTCHA system that your visitors are used to dealing with.
