Captcha generation script in PHP![]()
Captcha validation without reloading the page. By using JQuery we can validate the captcha entry of the user. We will send the data to our backend PHP script and display the output to the user. Here user stays in the same page and status of the validation is shown as message to the user.
captcha-image.phpInside PHP script first we will destroy any previous session and then crate a new session which we will use to store random string. This randomly generated string we will add to our image and ask the visitor to read and enter in the text box provided.
We store the randomly generated string in a session variable and we use the same string to generate the captcha image. The session variable is available in our captcha-demo-data.php page where we match both data in session variable and user entered string.
We change the header of the page as we are sending an image ( not an html code ) In the last part of the script we will create the image using GD library support.
captcha-demo1.phpWe have a simple web form inside which we will include the PHP file captcha-image.php to display the image.
We have added one button to reload the image by user if required. Now once user submit the form the details will be displayed at captcha-demo-data.php file. This file collects all the form data and using one if condition check if captcha string ( present in the session variable ) is same as user entered string or not.
captcha-demo-data.php
Font size and aligning inside imageWe are declaring the height and width here.$im = @ImageCreate (80, 20) // Width and height of the image.The text we are placing inside this image here ImageString($im,5,5,2,$_SESSION['my_captcha'],$text_color);Inside this function we have Int 5 as font size, Int 5 as X position of text inside Image, Int 2 as Y position. By adjusting these values we can align text to center , increase size of font and better position them. How to add Text String to Image At the time of random text generation, we have one option to select number of chars we want to use. This can be changed here.
Based on the number of chars used, font size and image with the text string can be positioned.
Advance Script to generate complex ImagesWe can rotate each char inside the image by arbitrary angle. This will make difficult for the robots to read the text inside images. We can add noise by adding random lines to the image. This part is added in advance section. We have generated each character of the random string as an image and then rotate the same to an arbitrary angle. After rotation of the character ( as Image ) we copy it to our main Image. This process we repeat for each char present in our string. Then we display the final image.Download source code of captcha generation script![]()
