Error 403 - Request Forbidden
Posted: 22 Oct 2008, 18:19
Hi,
I'm using Phoca Guestbook 1.3.0 on Joomla 1.5.7 and I've met the following issue: when I try to submit a guestbook entry after not doing anything on the page for a while, I get a 403 error with the message 'Request Forbidden'. Apparently it is caused by an expired session/token, I even found the code raising the error in the file ...\components\com_phocaguestbook\controllers\phocaguestbook.php round line 39:
I guess this is how it's meant to be, still I was wondering if it's really necessary or maybe there is a better way to handle the issue, since I find quite inappropriate such a severe error for a simple session timeout. Any help/advice would be welcome.
Regards,
Csilla

Code: Select all
//check the token before we do anything else
$token = JUtility::getToken();
if (!JRequest::getInt( $token, 0, 'post' ))
{
JError::raiseError(403, 'Request Forbidden');
}
