Script URL:http://bowwowblingco.com/guestbook/gbook.php
Version of script: 1.6
Hosting company:startlogic.com
URL of phpinfo.php: unknown
URL of session_test.php:unknown
What terms did you try when SEARCHING for a solution: security image not generating

Write your message below:

I aologize for not having all the appropriate information, as well as the 1.6 version instead of 1.7. However, each time I click the link to add the url of phpinfo.php, test_session.php and the download 1.7 now, numerous windows try to open and freeze up my pc forcing me to reboot. My main problem is with the guesstbook. Once you click on the sign guestbook link there is no security image that loads. I am not sure what I need to do to fix this problem and am not a script writer or webmaster. So my knowledge is limited. However, I CAN follow directions. Is there a simple fix to this problem without downloading 1.7?

the image is generated on the webserver using gdlibrary - you need to check your webserver has it installed and activated, it's a plugin for php.

In your phpinfo file you will be able to see if it's enabled or not.

If you don't know where your phpinfo file is you can make one yourself:

Code: Select all

<?php

phpinfo ();

?>
Put that into notepad and then save the file as phpinfo.php - put that file on your website somewhere you know where it is and then access it through your browser.

Ie if you put it in the root of your webserver it will be www.yourdomain.com/phpinfo.php

changing settings autosubmit to 2

I have verified the hosting company is supporting/installed the GD Library, so I changed $settings['autosubmit'] set to 2. While this now generates a number. Everytime the number is entered, it fails saying that the numbers don't match.

I have done as you stated. I see that the GD Library IS enabled and active. Any clue what else I could try?

I tested your guestbook - I was able to see the security image without problems and post a test entry. Do you have any software installed that could be blocking cookies? Try from some other PC.
