Hi, im trying to have a math captcha in my registration form, but having trouble with setting it up in my form. sorry for the large code. If i change the value of $_POST['Submit'] to something else like $_POST['Submit1'] and then same for the math image captcha then it works, but i would like it to work as part of the form, makes sense? lol right now the form just posts the value and doesnt check for captcha values! if someone could help me out here that would be great! thank you.

<?php 
if(isset($_POST['Submit'])){
if($_POST['Submit'] != $_SESSION['security_number'])
      {
         $error = "";
      }
      else
      {
         $error = "";
      }
   
//NEED TO CHECK IF FIELDS ARE FILLED IN
if( empty($_POST['name']) && (empty($_POST['email']))){
header("Location:Messages.php?msg=3"); 
exit();
}
if( empty($_POST['pw1']) && (empty($_POST['pw2']))){
header( "Location:Messages.php?msg=4" ); 
exit();
}
$name=$_POST['name'];
$email=$_POST['email'];

$pw1=$_POST['pw1'];
$pw2=$_POST['pw2'];

if("$pw1" !== "$pw2"  ){
header( "Location:Messages.php?msg=5" ); 
exit();
}
$ip = $_SERVER['REMOTE_ADDR'];

//connect to the db server , check if uname exist
include('config.php');
$query1=("Select * from user where email='$email'");
$result1= mysql_query($query1); 
$num1=mysql_num_rows($result1);
if ($num1 > 0) {//Email already been used
header( "Location:Messages.php?msg=11" ); 
exit();
}else{
$query=("Select * from user where uname='$name'");
$result= mysql_query($query); 
$num=mysql_num_rows($result);
if ($num > 0) {//Username already exist
header( "Location:Messages.php?msg=6" ); 
exit();
}else{
//if username does not exist insert user details
$query=( "INSERT INTO user (uname, pw,email,date_joined,ip,level) VALUES ('$name',md5('$pw1'),'$email',NOW(),'$ip','Normal')");
if (@mysql_query ($query)) {
header("location:login.php?reg=1");
exit;
}
}
}
mysql_close();
}
?>

The issue that you are facing due to duplicate form element name "Submit" for both the submit button and captcha input text. The submit button overrides the value of captcha field.

 

Change

<td><input type="text" name="Submit" value="what's the result?" onclick="this.value=''" /></td>

 

To

<td><input type="text" name="security" value="what's the result?" onclick="this.value=''" /></td>

 

Also, change

if($_POST['Submit'] != $_SESSION['security_number'])

 

To

if($_POST['security'] != $_SESSION['security_number'])

thanks anupamsaha,

 

thats what i figure too, im just unclear how i can actually submit both the form and my math captcha  together when i hit "SUBMIT"

 

i can choose either "captcha" or my registration form but not both of them. i would greatly appreciate if someone could check the bloew code for me.

 

this is what im working with- im using two files that i got INDEX.PHP and IMAGE.PHP which both work fine on their own, and  im having trouble integrating them to work with my registration form.  sorry for the large code...thank you.

 

INDEX.PHP
-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
<?php
session_start();
if( isset( $_POST['secure'] ) )
{
if($_POST['secure'] != $_SESSION['security_number'])
{
$error = "OOOK! Here's what you must do: click Start -> Run and write calc.";
}
else
{
$error = "Man, you're good! Your result is correct.";
}
}
?>
