try to look at this:

:: try to check your gd support (see administration - help - system info - php information)...

:: if it is possible, try to enable error reporting to on, maybe there is some php error or php warning which is rendered before image is rendered, this error stop from rendering the image

:: see your url to the image, maybe the url creating is wrong (see it in html code of your page)

:: see parameters component in menu manager - menu link to guestbook, see if captcha is enabled...

Is this the correct HTML to the CAPTCHA image?

<td width="5"><b>Image Verification: </b></td>
<td width="5" align="left" valign="middle">
<img src="/guestbook/1.html?phocasid=10d0aa4f383103ad09794488c44c7cea" alt="" id="phocacaptcha" />
</td>

I don't know what your SEF will produce from this link :( it seems like it should be OK

I am only using the basic SEF that joomla has built into it.

I just installed the alternate component and it works fine. Thank you very much.

I too had a Captcha problem with version 1.3.
I now downloaded 1.3.1 beta, installed it and gone was my problem. Captcha is back and running.

I believe the problem had to do with SEF. I have different sites of which one uses SEF. This one brought the problem, the others didn't. Resaving the menu-item didn't help.

But I'm happy again, thanks Jan.

The problem is, one of the method works on some servers and second method on other servers, so I added both mehtods into the parameters, in 1.3.1 you can decide which method will be used (JHTML or JRoute) method...

Ich habe das gleiche Problem mit den Captchas.
Leider hat das Update auf die 1.3.1 nicht geholfen
Aktiviert habe ich nur die Joomla eigenen SEF Optionen
JRoute:
[code]/index.php?option=com_phocaguestbook&view=phocaguestbooki&id=1&Itemid=78&phocasid=2992361fc32e69f3b984626e4e2fa17c"[/code]
JHTML:
[code]/gaestebuch/1.html?phocasid=6389dceb47fb34733d8698892892dc78" [/code]

Hat noch jemand ne Idee? Wenn SEF aus ist, geht alles.

MfG Steffen
