Hindi Localized CAPTCHA Images
Example Captcha images generated by BotDetect using the base Devanagari character set for all Captcha ImageStyle values can be seen in the BotDetect Captcha image styles demo
To use BotDetect Captcha images localized for the Hindi Captcha Locale in your application, you can specify the Locale value:
- In PHP applications, you can use either the application-global setting in the
lib/botdetect/CaptchaConfig.phpfile:// Set the default Locale for all Captcha instances in the // PHP application to Hindi $LBD_CaptchaConfig->Locale = 'hi';
or the Captcha object instance-specific value:<?php $SampleCaptcha = new Captcha("SampleCaptcha"); $SampleCaptcha->UserInputID = "CaptchaCode"; // Set the Captcha object instance Locale to Hindi $SampleCaptcha->Locale = 'hi'; echo $SampleCaptcha->Html(); ?>
- In ASP.NET applications, you can use either the
.aspxpage source:<!-- Captcha control localized to Hindi --> <BotDetect:Captcha ID="SampleCaptcha" runat="server" Locale="hi" />
or the page code-behind:[C#] // Set the Captcha instance Locale to Hindi SampleCaptcha.Locale = "hi";[VB.NET] ' Set the Captcha instance Locale to Hindi SampleCaptcha.Locale = "hi"Locale-dependent Captcha strings can be configured in the
<botDetect> Web.configconfiguration section. - In ASP Classic applications, you can use either the application-global setting in the
BotDetect\CaptchaConfig.aspfile:' Set the default Locale for all Captcha instances in the ' Classic ASP application to Hindi LBD_Configuration_Locale = "hi"
or the Captcha object instance-specific value:<% Dim SampleCaptcha : Set SampleCaptcha = (New Captcha)("SampleCaptcha") SampleCaptcha.UserInputID = "CaptchaCode" ' Set the Captcha object instance Locale to Hindi SampleCaptcha.Locale = "hi" Response.Write SampleCaptcha.Html %>
Hindi Localized Audio CAPTCHA Sounds
Example audio Captcha sounds generated by BotDetect using the Hindi Locale setting can be heard in the BotDetect Captcha features demo
To use BotDetect sounds localized for the Hindi Captcha Locale, you should also download the Hindi Pronunciation Sound Package and deploy the .bdsp file to the BotDetect sounds folder your application uses:
- PHP applications always use
lib/botdetect/Resources/Sounds. - ASP.NET applications use
Bin\BotDetectSoundsby default. A custom folder can be specified in the<botDetect>configuration section. - ASP Classic applications use
Redistribute\BotDetectSoundsin the BotDetect installation folder by default. A custom folder can be specified in theBotDetect/CaptchaConfig.aspfile.
Hindi Localized CAPTCHA Codes
The hi-IN Captcha locale uses the default Devanagari character set, consisting of 40 selected Devanagari characters.
Unicode Captcha Codes and Font Requirements
This table on the left uses the actual Unicode characters drawn in localized Captcha images.
Displaying these characters in your browser requires having fonts which support them installed on the client machine.
In ASP.NET and ASP Classic versions of BotDetect, generating localized Captcha images using these characters also requires supporting fonts on your server.
If viewing these characters in your browser or generating them in Captcha images on your server fails, you can enable the required localization support for on both client and server machines using Control Panel:
Windows 2000, XP, 2003 Server: Regional and Language Options → Languages → Supplemental language support.
Windows Vista, 7, 2008 Server: Region and Language → Keyboards and Languages → Install/uninstall languages.
