+There are two script tags that are required and it is strongly recommended to avoid changing the form and the recaptchadiv unless you know what you are doing. There are three echos within the page itself. Those are used by the web server to customize the recaptcha type and keys and specify any query string used.
 Beyond those required attributes, everything else is customizable. As noted before, please ensure that you have backups of the default page and your customized page. Note that the ''.shtml'' extension is required in order to use the LSWS configured type and keys.
