It will be a number like this: 1139612155.3422</p> - - <p>The "word" is the word that appears in the captcha image, which if not - supplied to the function, will be a random string.</p> - - <h3>Using the CAPTCHA helper</h3> - - <p>Once loaded you can generate a captcha like this:</p> - -<code>$vals = array(<br /> - 'word' => 'Random word',<br /> - 'img_path' => './captcha/',<br /> - 'img_url' => 'http://example.com/captcha/',<br /> - 'font_path' => './path/to/fonts/texb.ttf',<br /> - 'img_width' => '150',<br /> - 'img_height' => 30,<br /> - 'expiration' => 7200<br /> - );<br /> -<br /> -$cap = create_captcha($vals);<br /> -echo $cap['image'];</code> - - <ul> - <li>The captcha function requires the GD image library.</li> - <li>Only the img_path and img_url are required.</li> - <li>If a "word" is not supplied, the function will generate a random - ASCII string. You might put together your own word library that - you can draw randomly from.</li> - <li>If you do not specify a path to a TRUE TYPE font, the native ugly GD - font will be used.</li> - <li>The "captcha" folder must be writable (666, or 777)</li> - <li>The "expiration" (in seconds) signifies how long an image will - remain in the captcha folder before it will be deleted. The default - is two hours.</li> - </ul> - - <h3>Adding a Database</h3> - - <p>In order for the captcha function to prevent someone from submitting, you will need - to add the information returned from <kbd>create_captcha()</kbd> function to your database. - Then, when the data from the form is submitted by the user you will need to verify - that the data exists in the database and has not expired.</p> - - <p>Here is a table prototype:</p> - -<code>CREATE TABLE captcha (<br /> - captcha_id bigint(13) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,<br /> - captcha_time int(10) unsigned NOT NULL,<br /> - ip_address varchar(16) default '0' NOT NULL,<br /> - word varchar(20) NOT NULL,<br /> - PRIMARY KEY `captcha_id` (`captcha_id`),<br /> - KEY `word` (`word`)<br /> -);</code> - - <p>Here is an example of usage with a database. On the page where the CAPTCHA will be shown you'll have something like this:</p> - -<code>$this->load->helper('captcha');<br /> -$vals = array(<br /> - 'img_path' => './captcha/',<br /> - 'img_url' => 'http://example.com/captcha/'<br /> - );<br /> -<br /> -$cap = create_captcha($vals);<br /> -<br /> -$data = array(<br /> - 'captcha_time' => $cap['time'],<br /> - 'ip_address' => $this->input->ip_address(),<br /> - 'word' => $cap['word']<br /> - );<br /> -<br /> -$query = $this->db->insert_string('captcha', $data);<br /> -$this->db->query($query);<br /> -<br /> -echo 'Submit the word you see below:';<br /> -echo $cap['image'];<br /> -echo '<input type="text" name="captcha" value="" />';</code> - - <p>Then, on the page that accepts the submission you'll have something like this:</p> - -<code>// First, delete old captchas<br /> -$expiration = time()-7200; // Two hour limit<br /> -$this->db->query("DELETE FROM captcha WHERE captcha_time < ".$expiration); <br /> -<br /> -// Then see if a captcha exists:<br /> -$sql = "SELECT COUNT(*) AS count FROM captcha WHERE word = ? AND ip_address = ? AND captcha_time > ?";<br /> -$binds = array($_POST['captcha'], $this->input->ip_address(), $expiration);<br /> -$query = $this->db->query($sql, $binds);<br /> -$row = $query->row();<br /> -<br /> -if ($row->count == 0)<br /> -{<br /> - echo "You must submit the word that appears in the image";<br /> -}</code> - -</div> -<!-- END CONTENT --> - - -<div id="footer"> -<p> -Previous Topic: <a href="array_helper.html">Array Helper</a> - · -<a href="#top">Top of Page</a> · -<a href="../index.html">User Guide Home</a> · -Next Topic: <a href="cookie_helper.html">Cookie Helper</a></p> -<p><a href="http://codeigniter.com">CodeIgniter</a> · Copyright © 2006 - 2011 · <a href="http://ellislab.com/">EllisLab, Inc.</a></p> -</div> - -</body> -</html> |
