  When a user submits the incorrect math answer, their data is dropped and insulting: "Bad in mathematics? You can do better, try again." error is given. If I were a user and forgot to enter the captcha and/or fat fingered it and all of my data was lost, I would leave the website.
  
  It makes it hard to justify using this tool for businesses with this.

  Indeed, didn't notice that yet since I do know mathematics
  That is rather user unfriendly indeed. Shouldn't be that hard to fill in the form items when the error emerges I would guess.
  
  In the code it says:
  

  Code

  if($captcha_ok==false) {
              SessionUtil::delVar('formicula_captcha');
              // todo: append params to $returntourl and redirect
              $params = array('form' => $form);
              if(is_array($addinfo) && count($addinfo)>0) {
                  $params['addinfo'] = $addinfo;
              }
              return LogUtil::registerError(_FOR_WRONGCAPTCHA, null, pnModURL('formicula', 'user', 'main', $params));
          }

  
  so there is a todo there for hte captcha part. I guess the params need to be passed nicely to the main function again.

  Thanks Erik for taking a look and for the handy module.

  
  
  I did take a look in the code, since I'm using Formicula rather extensively, but the module is certainly not mine if that is what you meant
  Usability always gets my attention
