<?php
namespace App\Http\Controllers;
use Illuminate\Http\Request;
use Validator,Redirect,Response;
use App\User;
class CaptchaController extends Controller
{
public function captchaForm()
{
return view('captchaform');
}
public function storeCaptchaForm(Request $request)
{
request()->validate([
'name' => 'required',
'email' => 'required',
'mobile_number' => 'required',
'g-recaptcha-response' => 'required|captcha',
]);
dd('successfully validate');
}
}
