Not sure if this is PHP, but......

[ComputerCop911]

I am not sure if this can be done in PHP, or ASP, or whatever, but I've seen it done in PHP, but anyways....

I have an HTML form that emails me the results, and I want to add an auto-image-generating script where it generates an image of random numbers and the user has to enter it to continue registration...you see it on lots of web hosting company's application forms, registration forms on message boards, etc.

I was wondering if anyone knows how to do this, what language I would have to do it in....cause I have seen people do it, but I have no clue where to start.

You can generate the image in PHP. Can VBScript/ASP do it?

>>You can generate the image in PHP--but HOW??

>>Can VBScript/ASP do it?--That is the other part of my question.

You're the one whose signature line states your an ASP/HTML programmer, so you'd know better than I would. Can VBScript/ASP create images on the fly?

I'm not sure what he's after. It's not reasonable to expect knowledge of VBScript/ASP in the PHP forum.

Generating Images in PHP takes the GD library module that is usually installed on most webservers who run PHP. Im not that familiar with the GD library myself to tell u that maybe there is some already made image number generators u can use and just plug it in to your code that our part of the GD lib. However, I can say that this PHP application called "php-nuke" at

http://phpnuke.org

This php app has what your talking about and u can download and look at the source if u wish.
