But i wold like to change the code size in the validation feald

Is this possible and then how ?

Hello,

Yes, it is possible to change the font. Please do the following:

1) Open the file "random.php" in notepad.
2) Find the line 23 which is:

Here is the description for that function:

In other words the first 5 sets the font size, the second integer sets the horizontal pixel distance and the third integer represents the vertical pixel distance from the edge of the images.

Simply change the first intger value from 5 to whatever font size you need.

Hi,
I have tried this options but how high I make the font size, from 5 to 45, it doesn't work in my guest book!
Am I doing somthing wrong here?

Can you post the exact code you are using (exact values within the function call)?

hi Pete,

lines
#22: //put the code onto the background
#23: imagestring ($image, 5, 5, 8, $rand, $textColor);

and here I change the first 5 into .......what ever figure and nothing happens.

The largest size limit for "imagestring" function is 5. For larger size font, you need to use a different function called "imagettftext":

Replace the original line with the above two lines, where 'C:\Inetpub\wwwroot\guestbook\' is your guestbook installation directory. Inside that directory, create a folder called "fonts" and place the arial.ttf font file inside it. If all goes well, here is what you should see:





You will also have to resize all background images to a width of 160 pixels to accomplish. I am attaching a complete zip file with all modifications included for you below:





You can see the PHP Manual for more information on this function if needed (which you shouldn't).
