Re: [PHP] 3 mins of your time please...logic problem
A different approache for the captcha.. instead of using a blurred image use some text and than ask a question about the text like What does the 2nd word in the first line of the 4thparagraph say? Things to make sure: - Use enough texts so that guessing the correct word is not possible. - Use random word extraction to make the word different on each invocation. - Use different questions types and mix numbers and words. Like what is the word after the first word... stuff like that 10 different question should suffice - make sure that you have a timeout or relocation after a wrong word to make brute force attacks unattractive or even impossible This should be fairly easy to implement using db and php and is not quite as complicated as creating a blurry image. (IMHO) The system is easy to extend and easy to use by humans. Regards Stefan Langer

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] A different approache for the captcha.. instead of using a blurred image use some text and than ask a question about the text like What does the 2nd word in the first line of the 4thparagraph say? Reading images can still be automated, it just takes a lot more time to write a program to do so. A simple paragraph with text would be easy (relatively speaking) for a program to decipher and automatically answer. That's why you make the image screwy... the letters are tilted, overlapping, wavy, colored, or complex backgrounds, etc. Even the best of those images can be read by computer programs, though, although very few people would be able to write that program.

I agree that an image captcha can not be cracked by a lot of people, allthough it has been done. (and it takes only one program being released to do the job : ) ) Somethings to keep in mind is that you should use passphrases made up of random letters and numbers preventing the automated system from guessing them. The text captcha is based on the idea that the question you ask has to be interpreted first. I admit my question was not the best example but it should give an idea. A (maybe) better example: The author Frank Example is 35 years old. He studies Law at Harvard. BTW he says Hi. , What does the author Frank say? In a real world app this would be contained in a much larger text block and the question and text would be changed on each attempt. If you have a wide enough base of such questions it becomes virtually impossible to guess the correct word leaving only a brute force attack. A text captcha is fairly easy to set up using mysql and php but if you have a image captcha generator go with it or better even combine the two, it all depends on the grade of security you need against automation. regards Stefan Langer

Hi all,
Am having a bit of a problem understanding this, can anybody tell me where
i'm going wrong please?
Basically trying to limit the vote to just 1 per person, first am checking
if the the person with username has voted, if that comes back as false then
am checking his ip (because i dont know if the person changed his username
and is trying to vote again) now its allowing me to vote twice and on the
third time its restricting me.
*code*
$check=select vote_date from site_rateing where user='.$username.' and
sitenumber=.$n;
$res = mysql_query($check) or die(Error: . mysql_error());
$check_result = mysql_num_rows($res);
if($check_result !=1)
{ $oneVote=1;
$check2=select count(*) from site_rateing where ipno='.$theIP.' and
sitenumber=.$n;
$check_result2 = mysql_result(mysql_query($check2),0);
if($check_result2 =1)
{ $oneVote=2;}else{$oneVote=1;}
}// end of first if
if($oneVote ==2)
{
$row = mysql_fetch_row($res);
print(Sorry, You have already voted on .$row[0]..br Only one vote
is allowed);
exit;
}
else
//continue with the program.
*code*
Any ideas?
Thanks,
-Ryan

RE: [PHP] 3 mins of your time please...logic problem
You might try to perform bother queries first then check then by
If ($result1 || $result2) {
echo You have already voted;
} else {
...
}
This means that if either the username or ip or both exists in the db,
then the user is denied...
Hope this is along the lines of what your needing to do.

RE: [PHP] 3 mins of your time please...logic problem
You could take it further and only allow one vote per user and then log their IP address as well. There won't be many people who are determined to sway the vote by going through the hassle of creating a new user and then voting again. But there may be some. You can weed these out by looking through all the votes, usernames and ip addresses and then disregard votes which come from the same IP address from users who've only signed up minutes before voting. While they might think that they've beaten the system, you can clearly see from your table of users, registration dates, IP address and Voting Times that they're bogus. But it's a bit laborious to do this. Alternatively, once you've stored the first vote from a user in your database, let them vote again, give them the 'Thank you for your vote' message but disregard it from the server side. They'll think they're getting somewhere when in fact they're wasting their time (like those morons you see at pedestrian crossings who stab the button repeatedly, with the belief that it might make the lights change faster). And they probably won't try anything else which saves you having to delete a whole pile of junk user accounts. Just make sure you only show your users the poll result as a percentage without the 'x number of people have voted' or you'll be sussed. Would anyone really want to frig a forum poll anyway?

I just went to this page: http://www.captcha.net/cgi-bin/ez-gimpy And, when I view source, I see the following in an HTML comment: The following versions are available for download: a href=/ez-gimpy_install.tarEZ-Gimpy/a, a href=/gimpy_install.tarGimpy/a. So, I tried this URL: http://www.captcha.net/ez-gimpy_install.tar And, it works. Hope that helps.

What program? There are a few there, and they all generate images that are blurred or distorted as far as I am aware. Yahoo uses ez-gimpy; surely that is a good enough reason to at least consider it. Ok, I coulda swore there was a download link there for ez-gimp earlier today. Did we drive to much traffic there? lol Curt -- I used to think I was indecisive, but now I'm not so sure. -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
