Italian Localized CAPTCHA Images

Example Captcha images generated by BotDetect using the base Latin 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 Italian 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.php file:

  // Set the default Locale for all Captcha instances in the 
  // PHP application to Italian
  $LBD_CaptchaConfig->Locale = 'it';

  or the Captcha object instance-specific value:

  <?php 
    $SampleCaptcha = new Captcha("SampleCaptcha");
    $SampleCaptcha->UserInputID = "CaptchaCode";
    // Set the Captcha object instance Locale to Italian
    $SampleCaptcha->Locale = 'it';
    echo $SampleCaptcha->Html(); 
  ?>

• In ASP.NET applications, you can use either the .aspx page source:

  <!-- Captcha control localized to Italian -->
  <BotDetect:Captcha ID="SampleCaptcha" runat="server" Locale="it" />

  or the page code-behind:

  [C#]
      
  // Set the Captcha instance Locale to Italian    
  SampleCaptcha.Locale = "it";

  [VB.NET]
      
  ' Set the Captcha instance Locale to Italian    
  SampleCaptcha.Locale = "it"

  Locale-dependent Captcha strings can be configured in the <botDetect> Web.config configuration section.

• In ASP Classic applications, you can use either the application-global setting in the BotDetect\CaptchaConfig.asp file:

  ' Set the default Locale for all Captcha instances in the 
  ' Classic ASP application to Italian
  LBD_Configuration_Locale = "it"

  or the Captcha object instance-specific value:

  <%
    Dim SampleCaptcha : Set SampleCaptcha = (New Captcha)("SampleCaptcha")
    SampleCaptcha.UserInputID = "CaptchaCode"
    ' Set the Captcha object instance Locale to Italian
    SampleCaptcha.Locale = "it"
    Response.Write SampleCaptcha.Html
  %>

Italian Localized Audio CAPTCHA Sounds

Example audio Captcha sounds generated by BotDetect using the Italian Locale setting can be heard in the BotDetect Captcha features demo

To use BotDetect sounds localized for the Italian Captcha Locale, you should also download the Italian 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\BotDetectSounds by default. A custom folder can be specified in the <botDetect> configuration section.
• ASP Classic applications use Redistribute\BotDetectSounds in the BotDetect installation folder by default. A custom folder can be specified in the BotDetect/CaptchaConfig.asp file.
