    Hey there guys,
    I've come to the conclusion that captcha doesn't work. I implemented it as advised, however the only thing that happens now is that when you input the characters and press send, it doesn't take you to the confirmation screen it just hangs.

    However the message is actually sent.

    This applies to whether or not the captcha is even right!

    Please see www.iloveqatar.net/gallery

    This one spammer qwerty@aol.com just doesn't stop!

    I'm having the exact same issue

    http://www.ebro-catfishing.com/gallery/?level=picture&id=276

    The php just hangs and the coment submits if you get the text correct and doest if you don't. However the end user wouldnever know this as the page just seems to hang.

    Anybody got any ideas bout this?

    Ta,

    Alex.

    alfonce,

    Are you using IE? It sounds like your browser is caching the captcha image.
    Regardless, try this. Open 'plog-captcha.php' and find the following code:

    session_start();

    header("Content-Type: image/png");
    header("Cache-Control: no-cache, must-revalidate"); // HTTP/1.1
    header("Expires: Mon, 26 Jul 1997 05:00:00 GMT"); // Date in the past
    header("Last-Modified: ".gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s")." GMT");

    create_image();
    exit;
    and edit it to read:

    session_start();

    header("Content-Type: image/png");
    header("Pragma: public");
    header("Expires: 0");
    header("Cache-Control: must-revalidate, post-check=0, pre-check=0");
    header("Last-Modified: ".gmdate("D, d M Y H:i:s")." GMT");

    create_image();
    exit;

    Cheers for that sid.
    If you go here you will see the issue

    http://www.ebro-catfishing.com/gallery/index.php?level=picture&id=273

    If you go to leave a comment regardless of the captha system the main gallery image dissapears and you have to refresh a few times o navigate away and scome back in order to get the image to reshow itself.

    Any ideas?

    Ta,

    Alex.

    hmmm . . . I have no problems in Firefox or IE7. I can test on Safari and Opera when I get home too. What browser are you using?

    heh, I just tested in IE6 as well with no problems (although it's an install of multi-IE and not a native install). Hope that works for you! :D
