 * In the current version of the cf7 the submit does not work. Tested it on current
   Chrome, Firefox and Opera. There only comes the moving circle.
 * Feel free to test it here:

 * I investigated a little and saw that the firebug shows an error in the script.
   js together with the jquery.form.js:

 * here are the lines 22 till 26 of the script.js file
 * ———————
 *     ```
       data: { '_wpcf7_is_ajax_call': 1 },
       dataType: 'json',
       success: function(data) {
       var ro = $(data.into).find('div.wpcf7-response-output');
       $(data.into).wpcf7ClearResponseOutput();
       ```
   
 * ——————
 * I think that he tries to fill the object ‘data’ with something from ‘_wpcf7_is_ajax_call’
   but gets null.
 * After that he tries to access ‘data.into’ some lines down and gets also null.
 * So if anybody has an idea please help…

 * Not until now… I hope that someone capable of understanding this ajax thing can
   have a look into it. 🙁
 * If you know someone please give him a hint…

 * OK…
 * I investigated a little more and found some weird behaviour. It seems as if an
   error handling routine of the jquery.form.js is called every time an “eval()”
   function is called in the success part of the ajaxForm. Especially in lines 48-
   49 and 54-55 of the scripts.js file of cf7.
 * Has anyone an idea how to solve this?

   plugins.. nothing works. has anyone a solution ?

 * For me it works now. I commented out those lines i mentioned earlier. I have 
   no idea what they should do. Needs further investigation. its a temporary solution.
 * I also nearly completed a plugin that provides reCAPTCHA for contact form 7. 
   It does the same like the module that was available ones. I hope to get it up
   to wordpress.org at the end of the week. maybe someone is interested. 😉

 * I have released a plugin that provides reCPATCHA for Contact Form 7. You can 
   find it here:
 * [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7-recaptcha-extension/](http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/contact-form-7-recaptcha-extension/)
 * For that plugin to work the lines 54-55 need to be working. (not suppressed)

 * I had this same issue. I deactivated the CF7 pluging and then deleted it. I noticed
   that the delete from WP did not delete the entry form the database. I went into
   mysql and dropped the table for CF7.
 * I then used the wp plugin install method for plugins and activated the CF7 plugin
   from there. I then did the same with really simple captcha and all is working
   well.
