Problem with Google reCaptcha plugin in apex 4.2

Question

Hi guys,
We have just upgraded from APEX 4.0.1 to APEX 4.2. The installation and migration of the applications went very well (after installing the patch for the import of the workspaces :-) ). But we have met a problem - we have a Google reCaptcha plugin on 101 page (authentication page). It has runs pretty well on 4.0.1, but after upgrade whole plugin item just has disappeared from 101. Actually it has disappeared from IE9, IE8, Mozilla 16 and Google chrome. The only browser that is displaying reCaptcha is Opera.
Do you have any idea, why this happened and how we can fix it? The client wants to make some tests this week and we have to fix the situation.
Thanks in advance.
Gancho

Answer 1

Hi,
in the generated HTML code, do you still see the JavaScript calls to include the Google reCaptcha? For example something like
&lt;script type="text/javascript" src="http://www.google.com/recaptcha/api/js/recaptcha_ajax.js"></script>
&lt;script type="text/javascript">
apex.jQuery( document ).ready( function() {
(function(){Recaptcha.create("6LcGI70SAAAAADdzZiygNW47PaDtxCdECviVvas2","P205_RECAPTCHA_RECAPTCHA",{"theme":"red"});apex.jQuery(document).bind("apexbeforepagesubmit", function(){apex.jQuery("#recaptcha_challenge_field,#recaptcha_response_field").attr("name", "p_v04");});})();Have you verified that the page doesn't raise a JavaScript error during rendering. That could also prevent that the above JavaScript code is successfully executed.
As you can see on our demo page at http://apex.oracle.com/pls/apex/f?p=654321:205:0 it still works fine in APEX 4.2
