I have a problem with Fox Forum using captcha.
Maybe i'm wrong, but it seems that because long writing in the forum, the captcha code for the comment become obsolete: "wrong captcha code" is displayed (at a bad place...)

Is the time give to the writer the 24 minutes of the PHP session or something shorter ?

This is a PHP setting, not managed in PmWiki, and default is 1440 seconds (24 minutes). Any PHP scripts running on your hosting will clean the cookie data directories for files that have not been accessed for 1440 seconds. See these pages about the variable session.gc_maxlifetime :

 http://www.php.net/manual/en/session.configuration.php (English)
 http://www.php.net/manual/fr/session.configuration.php (French)

Anyways, if your session expires, the captcha is not validated and you should see the edit form again, with your text, and just have to enter the new captcha value and post the text. (I haven't used Fox Forum but the normal edit form does this.)
