Error/Problem: " I keep getting Wrong Security Code!" in the download and contact page where I use the Captcha Security Images.
I am moving my site to a new host because the old http://www.ixwebhosting.com lost all my gallery and till today could not restore it. I will be recreating the site on the address above.

This host has Platform
Type Debian
MySQL 5.0.45
Perl 5.8.8
PHP 4.4.7
and I think this check is causing the error:
if ((isset($_POST['post_code_page']) AND isset($_SESSION['chk_download']) AND strtolower($_POST['post_code_page'])==strtolower($_SESSION['chk_download'])) OR !(extension_loaded('gd') AND $siteConfig['graphic_check']))

the part about the extension_loaded

Thanks Mem

Why "error" ? It's a standard PHP function that check if your host have GD libraries installed.

Try putting this in a php file:

but in the code it is set as:
!(extension_loaded('gd') so it is evaluating to false.. should I change

No, it's perfect as is.

As i said, try to execute that code

I removed the not(!) in the contact us page and it worked, but in the download, removing it caused thesystem to ignore the security image all together... I am sure your code is accurate, it is the host.
Is there anything else you can think off...

Hi
You deleted the page imgCode.php?

This page does not exist

I said not to touch the script, if you do that, it's your own business... the ! char is there because it has to be, not because i wanted to write something

I repeat, TRY TO EXECUTE THE CODE I'VE POSTED IN THE PREVIOUS MESSAGE IN A PHP FILE, AND SEE WHERE'S THE PROBLEM... we can continue to chat for years here, but if you do not do that, nothing will change

why r u so mad mem, I was just testing... The page with your code is here: http://sallysl.startlogic.com/gd.php
it shows Y, which means the value translates to true, but with the ! is translates to N



and the imageCode.php is not deleted it is on the server and the images are actually created, they are just not being evaluated.

I checked with the hosting company, they said I need to place this line:
session_save_path("/home/users/web/b1129/sl.sallysl/public_html/cgi-bin/tmp " );

before every session_start

I'm not mad, i just needed that file. So it's a host problem. Than do what they says. Try putting at the beginning of root/index.php the session_save_path code

I did , but I've checked your code, you have a lot of session_start , do I need to include it before every one, also, is there a difference between @session_start and without the @ ?
