PHP Image problems! Please help ASAP :)

Hi,

I am getting this error:

Warning: imagettftext() [function.imagettftext]: Could not find/open font in /xxxxxxx/x/xxxxxxxx/xxxx/xxxx/image.php on line 39

Code (markup):

And this is my code:

<?php
session_start();
$font = "captcha.ttf";
$img = imagecreatetruecolor(200,30);

$white = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 255, 255);
$black = imagecolorallocate($img, 0, 0, 0);
$grey = imagecolorallocate($img,150,150,150);
$red = imagecolorallocate($img, 255, 0, 0);
$pink = imagecolorallocate($img, 200, 0, 150);
$bg = imagecolorallocate($img, 176, 196, 222);
$length = 5;

function randomString($length){
    $chars = "abcdefghijkmnopqrstuvwxyz023456789";
    srand((double)microtime()*1000000);
    $str = "";
    $i = 0;
   
        while($i <= $length){
            $num = rand() % 33;
            $tmp = substr($chars, $num, 1);
            $str = $str . $tmp;
            $i++;
        }
    return $str;
}

for($i=1;$i<=rand(1,3);$i++){
    $color = (rand(1,2) == 1) ? $pink : $red;
    imageline($img,rand(5,70),rand(5,20), rand(5,70)+5,rand(5,20)+5, $color);
}

imagefill($img, 0, 0, $bg);

$string = randomString(rand(3,4));
$_SESSION['string'] = $string;

imagettftext($img, 20, 0, 15, 20, $black, "captcha.ttf", $string);


imagepng($img);
imagedestroy($img);
?>

PHP:

Any idea the error is?

Thank you.

 

is this file "captcha.ttf" in the same folder with the script file ????

 

Yes

 

I am using this code but with other font. I have replaced the font name with your font. It is working here in my all websites. Please try this code.
Hope this will solve your problem

session_start();


class CaptchaSecurityImages {

    var $font = 'captcha.ttf';

    function generateCode($characters) {
        /* list all possible characters, similar looking characters and vowels have been removed */
        $possible = '23456789bcdfghjkmnpqrstvwxyz';
        $code = '';
        $i = 0;
        while ($i < $characters) {
            $code .= substr($possible, mt_rand(0, strlen($possible)-1), 1);
            $i++;
        }
        return $code;
    }

    function CaptchaSecurityImages($width='120',$height='40',$characters='6') {
        $code = $this->generateCode($characters);
        /* font size will be 75% of the image height */
        $font_size = $height * 0.75;
        $image = @imagecreate($width, $height) or die('Cannot initialize new GD image stream');
        /* set the colours */
        $background_color = imagecolorallocate($image, 255, 255, 255);
        $text_color = imagecolorallocate($image, 20, 40, 100);
        $noise_color = imagecolorallocate($image, 100, 120, 180);
        /* generate random dots in background */
        for( $i=0; $i<($width*$height)/3; $i++ ) {
            imagefilledellipse($image, mt_rand(0,$width), mt_rand(0,$height), 1, 1, $noise_color);
        }
        /* generate random lines in background */
        for( $i=0; $i<($width*$height)/150; $i++ ) {
            imageline($image, mt_rand(0,$width), mt_rand(0,$height), mt_rand(0,$width), mt_rand(0,$height), $noise_color);
        }
        /* create textbox and add text */
        $textbox = imagettfbbox($font_size, 0, $this->font, $code) or die('Error in imagettfbbox function');
        $x = ($width - $textbox[4])/2;
        $y = ($height - $textbox[5])/2;
        imagettftext($image, $font_size, 0, $x, $y, $text_color, $this->font , $code) or die('Error in imagettftext function');
        /* output captcha image to browser */
        imagejpeg($image);
        imagedestroy($image);
        $_SESSION['security_code'] = $code;
    }

}

$width = isset($_GET['width']) ? $_GET['width'] : '120';
$height = isset($_GET['height']) ? $_GET['height'] : '40';
$characters = isset($_GET['characters']) ? $_GET['characters'] : '6';

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
$captcha = new CaptchaSecurityImages($width,$height,$characters);

here is the form where I am using it

<?php 
session_start();

if( isset($_POST['submit'])) {
   if( $_SESSION['security_code'] == $_POST['security_code'] && !empty($_SESSION['security_code'] ) ) {
      // Insert you code for processing the form here, e.g emailing the submission, entering it into a database. 
     echo 'Thank you. Your message said "'.$_POST['message'].'"';
   } else {
      // Insert your code for showing an error message here
     echo 'Sorry, you have provided an invalid security code';
   }
} else {
?>

    <form action="form.php" method="post">
        <label for="name">Name: </label><input type="text" name="name" id="name" /><br />
        <label for="email">Email: </label><input type="text" name="email" id="email" /><br />
        <label for="message">Message: </label><textarea rows="5" cols="30" name="message" id="message"></textarea><br />
      <img src="CaptchaSecurityImages.php?width=200&height=60&characters=8" /><br />
        <label for="security_code">Security Code: </label><input id="security_code" name="security_code" type="text" /><br />
        <input type="submit" name="submit" value="Submit" />
    </form>
