Complete example

html
<form method="POST" action="/login" data-captcha>
    <input type="email" name="email">
    <input type="password" name="password">

    <!-- optional: controls where the protection status panel appears -->
    <div data-captcha-status></div>

    <button type="submit">Login</button>
</form>

<script>
    window.CAPTCHA_BASE_URL = "https://captchaapi.eu/api/v1";
    window.CAPTCHA_SITE_KEY = "your-site-key";
</script>

<script src="https://captchaapi.eu/captcha.js" defer></script>

data-captcha-status is optional — if omitted, the widget injects the panel automatically before the submit button.

  1. 1

    Add data-captcha to your form

    The widget automatically finds all forms with this attribute and injects the PoW challenge.

  2. 2

    Set CAPTCHA_SITE_KEY

    Replace "your-site-key" with the key from your project dashboard.

  3. 3

    Include captcha.js

    Load the script after your config block. It runs the PoW puzzle and appends the token to your form submission.
