a simple captcha

I've seen a few requests floating around for a login captcha. so here it goes, a very simple one that does the work just fine.

(Despite this is on MCC thread this is usable pretty much everywhere!

and~next the input for the code

After this, wherever you check the credentials use $_POST['code'] from the input and compare it to $_SESSION['code']

A final note, you might need to re-adjust file size and colors to suit your needs!

I've never been a massive fan of login captcha's because they just slow down users being able to access the game along with pretty much making auto login plugins in browsers useless. It is all preference on the site owners end I guess.

None the less good job, easy and simple code!

I use captcha for registration, gym use and crime use and anywhere else in my game(s) where a bot/macro could be used to give a player an unfair advantage. Its not foolproof but it does stop the majority of players making those that do get around it stand out.

Good work man, though...

I would suggest that you randomize the position of text and lines for complexity.

that could've been an option, though the version i use (this was trimmed down to the simplest version possible ;)), i encrypt the string just before the post so any automated attempt, would fail unless using rainbow tables :)
