Captcha Using PHP



CAPTCHA  which stands for “Completely Automated Public Turing test to tell Computers and Humans Apart” is a type o f challenge-response test to ensure that the response is only generated by humans and not by a computer.

In simple words, CAPTCHA is the word verification test that you will come across the end of a sign-up form while signing up for Gmail or Yahoo account. The following image shows the typical samples of CAPTCHA.

You can make captcha using PHP. Here I am making number captcha which is achieved by an image. This image text is dynamically create by php and stored in session. A user can verify whether valid captcha has been entered or not.



Save this code in named captch.php

<?php 
session_start(); 
$text = rand(10000,99999); 
$_SESSION["vercode"] = $text; 
$height = 25; 
$width = 65; 
  

$image_p = imagecreate($width, $height); 
$black = imagecolorallocate($image_p, 0, 0, 0); 
$white = imagecolorallocate($image_p, 255, 255, 255); 
$font_size = 14; 
  
imagestring($image_p, $font_size, 5, 5, $text, $white); 
imagejpeg($image_p, null, 80); 
?>

Index page code

<?php
session_start();  
if($_POST["code"]== $_SESSION["vercode"])
$msg="Ok You 're human";
else
$msg="Invalid code";
?>
