Thanks all for the cometns. Especially for the code AbraCadaver. It works!

thnaks...that got rid of the errors., sadly it also got rid of the images on the page! www.onesevenoaks.co.uk

Yes, I did! It's wjat I started out with. No difference sadly. I get the error message 6 times but there are ten images being displayed. Why would that be?

I've been trying to solve this for the past 2 days! Please help. I get this message while trying to validate the code in W3c valifation service. bad value %20images/image_name%20 for attribute src on element img: Whitespace in path component. Use %20 in place of spaces. There is no white space in the lines below. OR is there? I have put %20 in all white spaces that I could find with no effect. if (is_file(MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture']) . filesize(MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture']) > 0){echo'%20<a href="pictures.php">%20<img src="%20' . MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture'] . '%20" alt="sevenoaks latest pic" style="width:75px; maxheight:110px; margin:5px; padding:5px;"></a>'; if (is_file(MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture']) . filesize(MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture']) > 0){echo'%20<a href="pictures.php">%20<img src="%20' . MM_UPLOADPATH . $row['picture'] . '%20" alt="sevenoaks latest pic" style="width:75px; maxheight:110px; margin:5px; padding:5px;"></a>';

ok..i must have read th wrong thing. This file is only a few weeks old! The programs work on my local host. They work in the all other programs I have used. It is only this one that it does not work as expected, giving out 40 characters rather than 6 Thnaks for your continued help!

um...think both are the same: On. How would I turn them off? Is this advisable?

Sorry, but I can't see where.

UPDATE: It works the first time the page is entered. Refresh and the 40 characters appear

I expect the Captcha.php to out put a string of six characters (letters). Which it does with the first program. With the second, for some reason it outputs a string of 40 characters (letters and numbers)

I have created a Captcha image to use on various forms. It works fine in one are creating a row of letters that when entered correctly send the information to the correct email. However when I cut and paste the exact same code the image creates numbers that cannot be read and therefore the form cannot be sent. I cannot for the life of me see why this would be? Or at least prevent numbers form appearing? Thanks very much in advance for any help Code below: <?php session_start(); // Set some important CAPTCHA constants define('CAPTCHA_NUMCHARS', 6); define('CAPTCHA_WIDTH', 100); define('CAPTCHA_HEIGHT', 25); // Generate the random pass-phrase $pass_phrase = ""; for ($i = 0; $i < CAPTCHA_NUMCHARS; $i++) { $pass_phrase .= chr(rand(97, 122)); } // Store the encrypted pass-phrase in a session variable $_SESSION['pass_phrase'] = SHA1($pass_phrase); // Create the image $img = imagecreatetruecolor(CAPTCHA_WIDTH, CAPTCHA_HEIGHT); // Set a white background with black text and gray graphics $bg_color = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255); // white $text_color = imagecolorallocate($img, 0, 0, 0); // black $graphic_color = imagecolorallocate($img, 64, 64, 64); // dark gray // Fill the background imagefilledrectangle($img, 0, 0, CAPTCHA_WIDTH, CAPTCHA_HEIGHT, $bg_color); // Draw some random lines for ($i = 0; $i < 5; $i++) { imageline($img, 0, rand() % CAPTCHA_HEIGHT, CAPTCHA_WIDTH, rand() % CAPTCHA_HEIGHT, $graphic_color); } // Sprinkle in some random dots for ($i = 0; $i < 50; $i++) { imagesetpixel($img, rand() % CAPTCHA_WIDTH, rand() % CAPTCHA_HEIGHT, $graphic_color); } // Draw the pass-phrase string imagettftext($img, 18, 0, 5, CAPTCHA_HEIGHT - 5, $text_color, 'Courier New Bold.ttf', $pass_phrase); // Output the image as a PNG using a header header("Content-type: image/png"); imagepng($img); // Clean up imagedestroy($img); ?> The above works wioth this code below: <?php $from = ""; $subject = ""; $onesevenoaksmail = ""; if (isset($_POST['submit'])) { $from = $_POST ['from']; $subject = $_POST ['subject']; $onesevenoaksmail = $_POST ['onesevenoaksmail']; $email = "support@onesevenoaks.co.uk"; $output_form = 'no'; if (empty($subject)) { //$subject is blank echo '<p class="error">You forgot to enter a subject.</p>'; $output_form = 'yes'; } if (empty($onesevenoaksmail)) { // $onesevenoaksmail is blank echo '<p class="error">You forgot to enter your message.</p>'; $output_form = 'yes'; } //Check the CAPTCHA pass-phrase for verification $user_pass_phrase = sha1($_POST['verify']); if ($_SESSION['pass_phrase'] != $user_pass_phrase) { echo '<p class="error">Please enter the verification pass phrase exactly as shown.</p>'; $output_form = 'yes'; } if (!preg_match('/^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\._\-&!?=#]*@/', $from)) { //$email is invlaid beacsue local name is bad echo '<p class="error">Your email address is incorrect.</p>'; $output_form = 'yes'; } else { //strip out everything but the domain from the email $domain = preg_replace('/^[a-zA-Z0-9][a-zA-Z0-9\._\-&!?=#]*@/', '', $from); //Now check if $domain is registered function win_checkdnsrr($domain,$recType='') { if (!empty($domain)) { if ($recType=='') $recType="MX"; exec("nslookup -type=$recType $domain",$output); foreach($output as $line) { if (preg_match("/^$domain/", $line)) { return true; } return false; } return false; } } } } else { $output_form = 'yes'; } if ($output_form == 'yes') { ?> <table> <tr> <td> <form enctype="multipart/form-data" method="POST" action="<?php echo $_SERVER['PHP_SELF']; ?>"> <label for="from">Email:</label></td> <td><input id="from" name="from" type="text" size="60" value="<?php echo $from; ?>"/></td></tr> <tr> <td> <label for="subject">Subject of email: </label></td> <td><input type="text" id="subject" name="subject" size="60" value="<?php echo $subject; ?>" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <label for="onesevenoaksmail">Body of email: </label></td> <td><textarea id="onesevenoaksmail" name="onesevenoaksmail" rows="8" cols="60"><?php echo $onesevenoaksmail; ?></textarea> </td> </tr> <tr> <td>Verification:</td> <td> <input type = "text" id="verify" name="verify" size="30" /> <img src="captcha.php" alt="Verification pass-phrase" /> </td> </tr> <tr> <td> <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" /> </td> </tr> </table> <hr> </form> <?php } else if ($output_form == 'no') { $msg = "Dear Doug\n Subject: $subject\n Message: $onesevenoaksmail\n From: $from"; $headers = "doug_pitchers@hotmail.com"; mail($headers, $subject, $msg, 'from:' .

yes, I understand that. Thank you so much for your help

Sorry....that doesn't work...the user goes straight to "Your profile has been successfully updated" which is wrong (and also untrue!) they should get the one of the two earlier messages Thanks so much for your continued help Doug
