Image refresh #30

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago 
I would be nice if django-simple-captcha would support some kind of means
for refreshing the image/generating a new one, in case the user has a
difficulty in reading the current one. This could be implemented in two
ways: first a refresh button next to the image, second if after the submit
the validation fails automatically generate a new captcha.

Daniel, thank you for your feedback. 

Having a refresh option has always been somewhere on my personal todo list, so 
I'll definitely give this a 
thought.

Concerning the two options you describe, isn't the second one already 
implemented, i.e. if the user submits 
the form without a valid captcha, a new one is generated, isn't it?

The first option is a bit more complex, because we would need to fetch a new 
image via AJAX (because we 
don't want to submit the form and pass through Django's form validation 
procedure). Ajax would be pretty 
straightforward if we used a javascript framework like e.g. jQuery, but there 
is no way of knowing if one is 
being used by the client or not.

Anyway, I'll give this a thought, any patch or suggestion welcome.

You're right, that second suggestion of mine is already implemented.

Sorry, but how it's implemented (suggestion about AJAX)?
