I have got a free working captcha from www.white-hat-web-design.co.uk. I tried it & it works fine. I modified some variables so I can insert it into my form. Even after I modified it ..It's still working fine. When I inserted it into my form it partly worked. As when the user leaves the captcha field empty, it asks him/her to re-enter the captcha again & stops sending the form..This is fine but if the user enters any characters in the captcha field..it validates them whatever the characters are ... it doesn't matter if they match or not. I included the codes of the working captcha alone, the partly working captcha after being inserted in the form & the codes for generating the image. I want to know where the error is.

 

Working Captcha

<?php 
session_start();

if( isset($_POST['submit'])) {
   if( $trimmed['Captcha'] == $_POST['Captcha'] && !empty($trimmed['Captcha'] ) ) {
	// Insert you code for processing the form here, e.g emailing the submission, entering it into a database. 
	echo 'Thank you. Your message said "'.$_POST['message'].'"';
	unset($trimmed['Captcha']);
   } else {
	// Insert your code for showing an error message here
	echo 'Sorry, you have provided an invalid security code';
   }
} else {
?>

<form action="form.php" method="post">
	<label for="name">Name: </label><input type="text" name="name" id="name" /><br />
	<label for="email">Email: </label><input type="text" name="email" id="email" /><br />
	<label for="message">Message: </label><textarea rows="5" cols="30" name="message" id="message"></textarea><br />
	<img src="CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=100&height=40&characters=5" /><br />
	<label for="Captcha">Security Code: </label><input id="Captcha" name="Captcha" type="text" /><br />
	<input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
</form>

<?php
}
?>

 

 

Partly Working

   // Check for a Captcha:
  if( isset($_POST['submit'])) {
if ($trimmed['Captcha'] == $_POST['Captcha'] && !empty($trimmed['Captcha'])) {
$ccap = mysqli_real_escape_string 
($dbc, $trimmed['Captcha']);
echo "Working Fine";
unset($trimmed['Captcha']);
} else {
echo "Not Working";
}
}

$width = isset($_GET['width']) ? $_GET['width'] : '120';
$height = isset($_GET['height']) ? $_GET['height'] : '40';
$characters = isset($_GET['characters']) && $_GET['characters'] > 1 ? $_GET['characters'] : '6';

$captcha = new CaptchaSecurityImages($width,$height,$characters);

?>

 

 

One more thing I want to know is how to add a button that refreshes the image when clicked without refreshing the whole page in case the image was not clear.

You should consider this, but I found a rather easy captcha image verification code that is really easy to use.

 

//new file called captcha.php

<?php 
session_start(); 
$text = rand(10000,99999); 
$_SESSION["vercode"] = $text; 
$height = 25; 
$width = 65; 

$image_p = imagecreate($width, $height); 
$black = imagecolorallocate($image_p, 0, 0, 0); 
$white = imagecolorallocate($image_p, 255, 255, 255); 
$font_size = 14; 

imagestring($image_p, $font_size, 5, 5, $text, $white); 
imagejpeg($image_p, null, 80); 
?>

 

//form - already have your old form's contents

<?php 
session_start(); 
if ($_POST["vercode"] != $_SESSION["vercode"] OR $_SESSION["vercode"]=='')  { 
     echo  '<strong>Incorrect verification code.</strong><br>'; 
} else { 
   <form action="form.php" method="post">
      <label for="name">Name: </label><input type="text" name="name" id="name" /><br />
      <label for="email">Email: </label><input type="text" name="email" id="email" /><br />
      <label for="message">Message: </label><textarea rows="5" cols="30" name="message" id="message"></textarea><br />
      <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
   </form>
     echo  '<strong>Verification successful.</strong><br>'; 
}; 
?>
