I've been trying to understand this problem for the past couple of days.

Basically, I have a contact form created with the userforms module.

I have a recaptcha on it. It works fine on everything except Google Chrome, where it creates a gap under the recaptcha and breaks the design.

When I look at it with Chrome's Developer Tools, I see that the Recaptcha has created an empty iFrame (src=about:blank) and when I remove the iFrame using the "delete this node" option, it fixes the design. I can't see the empty iFrame when I look at the page source and Firebug doesn't see it either.

So I don't know if it's a Chrome problem, a recaptcha problem or a SilverStripe problem since I did use the userforms module. I can't find any mention of it on Google either. I can't even understand why it needs an iframe. There's a google map on the same page, which DOES run in an iFrame but removing the map doesn't change anything.

Has anyone had this problem before? Any suggestions?

I can confirm this also. Only in Chrome. My thoughts are it could have something to with Google buying recaptcha and injecting code via it's browser. Know idea why though.

Sorry, in the end I just decided to live with it as Chrome is a bit of a minority browser and the customer was in a hurry. It's on the pile of stuff to do on a rainy day. :P

Add the below css on the captcha page

<style>
iframe {
display:none
}
</style>

Hey, thanks! That *KIND OF* works, because I have two iframes on the same page (one's created by a Google map)

Your solution would normally work but, in my case, it knocks out both iFrames.

But it sounds like a big step in the right direction. Thank you very much! :)
