Usually that is done by generating dynamically a single image using the
GD extension.

You may want to take a look at this forms generation class to perform
that kind of validation. It generates an image with a random text and a
noise image to make the text a little fuzzy and harder to crack by robots.

Here is a screenshot of the text:

Take a look at the test_captcha_input.php example script to learn how
the class can simplify this task for you using this plug-in:
