```
	Route::get("form", function()
	{

		$options = array(
			"width"			=>	280,
			"height" 		=> 	100,
			"font_size" 	=> 	28,
			"length" 		=> 	8,
			"num_circles" 	=> 	0,
			"num_lines" 	=> 	4,
			"expiration"	=>  600,
			"bg_color"		=>	"20,20,20"
		);

		$captcha = Simplecaptcha::captcha($options);
		return View::make("form", array("captcha" => $captcha));

	});
	Route::post("process", function()
	{
		$rules =  array('captcha' => array('required', 'captcha'));
	    $validator = Validator::make(Input::all(), $rules);
	    if($validator->fails())
	    {

	    	echo "fails";

	    }else{

	    	echo "success";

	    }
	});
```

Now you can use the captcha in the view as follows:

```

        {{ Form::open(array('url' => 'process')) }}

	            {{ $captcha["img"] }}

                {{ Form::label('captcha', 'Captcha') }}

                {{ Form::text('captcha') }}

                {{ Form::submit('Success') }}

            {{ Form::close() }}

```
