I purchased a license for Gbook and have required it within my guestbook.php page. The problem I am running into is that on the initial load the captcha image is not displaying, only the alt tag. Once I refresh the page however it is henceforth visible. If I clear the browsers cache it again is missing for the first reload. I am assuming it has something to do with sessions but cannot find out where the error may be. It also may have to do with the fact that I am using a php require of the gbook.php file within my guestbook.php page.

I tested a fresh gbook version in new blank php page with one php require to the gbook.php file and have the same problem.

Any thoughts on this issue would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks much,
Justin

Hello Justin,

I am sorry, but I have no idea. It might be session problems as you suggest.

Did you try the session test provided by Klemen? See this post viewtopic.php?t=83

And if it the captcha image is not showing, you could try using the text version instead of the graphical version, set $settings['autosubmit']=2; in the settings.php file . But if it is a problem with sessions, that might also not work correctly.

Greetings,
Henrie
