Problem with image-verify on firefox and netscape

blackcoffee

Hi, this image-verify code works on ie, but not on firefox or netscape (it just gets a message "The image '...image-verify.php' cannot be displayed, because it contains errors." instead). Anyone know why? Thanks!

Header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");

<html><body>

JPEG images do not contain html.

HTML is not served under a Content-Type: of image/jpeg.

One of these is wrong; apparently the second, since you're saving the JPEG in a file and then referencing it in the <img> tag. Incidentally, I recommend you give the file a unique name (randomly generated, say) that you store in the session; otherwise if two people visit your site at the same time their random images will collide.

Still doesn't work with the html tags out...any other ideas? Thanks!

Comment out the header() part and load the image directly (not through a webpage). Then add error_reporting(E_ALL); to the top and see what the error is.

Thanks! The prob. was the header() part and the refresh code.
