I hacked class/captcha a bit to introduce a new graphical captcha to XOOPS. Original code you will find HERE.

Requirements:
1. jquery.js must be included in theme
2. PHP 5 >= 5.2.0, PECL json >= 1.2.0
3. Do NOT use any other javascript frameworks like mootools on the same page as the captcha

Download: HERE

Good luck and have fun.

Fantastic!!!

How difficult would be to create a Captcha module that would offer a standard API, so users could have several different Captcha implementations installed with that module, and be able to select which Captcha they want to use.

Other modules could use this one as a "helper" module...

Is there really a need for a captcha module? Instead some configurations like captchas and debugging should be moved to the system configuration.

Perhaps the core has to be modified that way, that captchas and debuggers can be added as a plugin. Once the plugin is moved to a certain folder the plugin will be displayed in the system configuration.

Just an idea.

hi'

I love the sexy captcha ! However something more discreet could be nice too (I'm thinking about a simple mathematical operation).

... it is not I who will make the development, so it is just an idea

Cool..

if you use



And then rename all $ to xoops_sexycaptcha in js.

You still cannot use with other frameworks ??

Hey Frank this is a great hack,

I have implimented a renamed function to this great hack to make it work with other javascript frameworks also.

Hope you can use
