  1. Hi guys,

    We're currently availing of discountasp.net asp.net 3.5 hosting package. In our dev environment, we're having no problems in using this free captcha control: http://www.codeproject.com/KB/custom-controls/CaptchaControl.aspx. However, for some reason, it fails to generate an image when deployed to the discountasp.net server. Since the problem looks like the CaptchaImage.aspx is missing,I think it has something to do with the serverfailing to implement the following HttpHandler (as instructed on the reference URL above):

    <httpHandlers>
    <add verb="GET" path="CaptchaImage.aspx"
    type="WebControlCaptcha.CaptchaImageHandler, WebControlCaptcha" />
    </httpHandlers>

    Thoughts? Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

    :)

    i am not thoroughly understanding the problem based on your description. Can you send the link to the problem page?

  3. Thanks for your time. Here is the link:

    This was supposed to be the login/default.aspx page but we couldn't have the captcha control generate the random captcha image within the discountasp.net environment.

    For reference, here's a screenshot of the same page running within our local dev env (attached).
