David.

Today, I sent you a donation and an email via the contact form.  Let me know what you need in order to see why my form quit working (see first post).

Thanks in advance!

The rand() function generates a randon number between the given arguments. So if I did rand(1,9), this would generate a single number between 1 & 9. So, rand(100, 150) is generating a single random number between 100 & 150.

David.

Just to clarify, this captcha is NOT case sensitive?  It seems to work both ways, but wanted to double check.

As soon as my client pays me, I'll send you a donation so you can help with my major problem! *grins*

Thanks for your patience in helping.

I guess what I'm confused about is that if RGB is made up of 3 numbers (ie, 250 250 250) ... then why is there only two listed per group (ie (100, 250)) ?  I guess I'm not sure how to read the code in the script.

Check out this other thread for Maian Mail:
http://www.maianscriptworld.co.uk/forum/index.php? action=vthread&forum=5&topic=498

Look at Alexanders last message. He also wanted to change the colour. You could also adjust some of the settings in the captcha class. ie, you could create a blank jpeg and then specify that as the background.

You can also look for this code on line 298:

imagecolorallocate($this->oImage, 255, 255, 255);

That sets white as the background color. You can change these values. Only problem is you might still get a character generated with the same bg colour.

David.

$iLineColour = imagecolorallocate($this->oImage, rand(100, 250), rand(100, 250), rand(100, 250));

to ...

$iLineColour = imagecolorallocate($this->oImage, rand(100, 150), rand(100, 150), rand(100, 150));
} else {
               $iRandColour = rand(100, 150);
               $iLineColour = imagecolorallocate($this->oImage, $iRandColour, $iRandColour, $iRandColour);

And I still get a white 5th character in the captcha ... have to refresh form 3-5 times to get it to show.  I also tried 200, 225, 175, etc ... I'm not used to working with RGB ... so I'm not sure what I'm doing with the above code. *grins*  I do have a web page up showing all the RGB codes for colors. I think a gremlin is in my files. *chuckles*

David.

Am just doing a quick "drive-by" the forum as I'm swamped with stuffs ...

Will adjust the white as you suggested ... didn't even think of that. doh!

Donation ... how small is "small" ?  *wink*  hehehe

Will check back with you in another day or so.  And, thanks for your help and great scripts!

Firstly, the captcha is working correctly. Because its randomly selecting a colour for each character, its possible that white is one of those colours. At the moment I don`t have a refresh option for Maian Mail for the captcha, but I will add one next time.

You can try opening the 'classes/php-captcha.inc.php' file and finding line 154:

$iLineColour = imagecolorallocate($this->oImage, rand(100, 250), rand(100, 250), rand(100, 250));

Reduce the 250 to something smaller. The RGB for white is 255,255,255. So, reducing the 250 will reduce the amount of white used.

As for the form, well unfortunately I can`t be of much help because I can`t see what you have done with the code, so I have no idea where its failing. If you want to send a small donation I`ll take a look for you.

Several months ago, I took your mail program and expanded it into a staff application form by adding more fields and checkboxes.  I did not alter anything to do with the capcha and such.  The form worked beautifully with not a hitch.

Now, my client wanted to alter some of those fields and expand the application. So, I followed the same procedure that I previously did (kept my notes on what files I altered etc). 

Now the form wont work.  You can fill in the form/application and click send and the page just refreshes. Some of the fields remain filled in and others are blank again.  You have given the error message of: Please correct the errors in red:  However, there are no red error messages showing.  I did not alter anything in the sitestyle file and I made sure that the fields are accounted for anywhere in the code in files pertaining to error. 

Also, and this was a problem from before, but a minor one ... with the capcha ... it's a 5 character capcha, but sometimes (3 out of 5 times) the 5th character is white, and thus you can't see it.  Again, I never, from day one, altered ANYTHING concerning the capcha code.

I even used WinMerge to compare/contrast the original mail form script (untouched) and other than those codes that pertain to the fields themselves, nothing else is altered (send function, capcha, etc).

Once I have the form working, I'll need to put it behind a SSL certificate for obvious reasons when you view the form.

If you can provide any suggestions, I would be more than appreciative. I have been looking at these files for the last 2 days and can't figure out why the form won't work now, when it worked perfectly fine before.  I went through with a fine tooth comb making sure all apostrophes and semi colons and all are intact. 

I'm half bald now and that doesn't look great on a gal *wink*

BTW: I did v3.1
