Captcha using TTF & GD

v 2.7 28.04.2007 6:12

1. Remove "ob_" functions from captcha_img.php.
2. Add
   header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
   header('Content-Disposition:attachment; filename=captcha_img.' . $this->img_type);

A_berezin,

I already have mine working by taking out the "ob_"lines out, should I add the
"header" lines in thier place? Would it look like this:

header('Content-Transfer-Encoding: binary');
require('includes/application_top.php');
header('Content-Disposition:attachment; filename=captcha_img.' . $this->img_type);

require(DIR_WS_CLASSES . 'captcha.php');
$captcha = new captcha();

$captcha->generateCaptcha();
``` Oh and once again thanks for the mod:D 

Thanks,
Chad

:clap:Will somebody please notify Zencart's administrator to make Andrew's Captcha TTF as the default one in the download mods? Andrew has done a really good job and I think it's very very stupid to ignore this kind of contribution. The old Captcha in the download mods is a freaking joke any 13-yrs old can break.:shocking:

How do you make a mod a "default" in the downloads area? What does that mean? Mods are just listed in alpha order, that's all.

How is Andrew's mod being "ignored"?

Andrews' mod is completely different from the previous captcha mod. Shopowners can choose either to try out.

Yes the limitations of the old captcha mod are well known, but is based on old technology for previous times.

But there is nothing you can do to promote one mod or the other in the Zen Cart downloads area.

1. Can you provide a URL?

2. Does the same issue occur on your Write a Product Review submission page or Tell A Friend submission page

3. What errors display in your web server error log?

4. The mod should not effect the login page, but does effect the create_account page.

5, Where did you upload the following template files provided with the mod? (provide full path please).

(note you should only upload those files to your custom template directory only if running ZC 1.37 and you have not customized your versions of the same files... otherwise you need to merge the mod code from the provided template files into your versions).

tpl_tell_a_friend_default.php
tpl_modules_create_account.php
tpl_product_reviews_write_default.php
tpl_contact_us_default.php
(and tpl_links_submit_default.php if you have Links Manager mod installed).

6. The mod includes captcha_test.php and captcha_debug.php for testing/debug purposes. If you upload both files to the root of your shop and access both files via your web browser what do you observe?

The first post is the newest version!! Good luck!

Thank you.
This is great. I am having one problem though. No matter what setting I use in admin, I can't get the image font any larger.

I would re-upload the captcha.php file thats in the classes folder. I think it has the font size ect in it. Im not really sure how this works. If that dont work try uploading the whole thing again after you run the uninstall.sql ect!

Are not loaded ttf-fonts

I uploaded the font that was included in the zip. Would my css have anything to do with it?

Thanks,
Kelly

About what css you talk???

If *.ttf uploaded, may be function 'imagettftext' not exists.

If *.ttf uploaded, may be function 'imagettftext' not exists.

I have another site on a different server and the image is fine. I used all the same files, etc. So it may be that.
How can I tell if I have that or not?

Thanks,
Kelly

Ask your hosting support.

Thank You, this mod is fantastic, just what I needed.
Installation was a breaze and is working great!

I do have one problem... In IE 6 the redraw capcha image does not display. Everything else works fine and no problems at all in FF.

I read through the post but did not see any specific refrence to this and I don't want to break it by messing with something over my head.

Has anyoneone else experienced or fixed this issue?

Thanks in advance,

Steve

Little Bumpie...

:blush:

There are no problems with IE6 for me.
