Checking failed CAPTCHAs...?

Looking at the vB register template, there is a conditional <if> as the tempalte loads, that checks to see if any errors occured during a previous registration attempt...

PHP Code:


		
			
<if condition="$show['errors']">

 <table class="tborder" cellpadding="$stylevar[cellpadding]" cellspacing="$stylevar[cellspacing]" border="0" width="100%" align="center">

 <tr>

  <td class="tcat">$vbphrase[errors_occurred_during_registration]</td>

 </tr>

 <tr>

  <td class="alt1"><ul>$errorlist</ul></td>

 </tr>

 </table>

 <br />

</if>

How can I use, or can I use the $vbphrase[errors_occurred_during_registration] to check which type of error occured on the registration form?

Specifically, I want to check whether the CAPTCHA was failed during registration.

Thanks in advance,
step

That is just a phrase that says the same string all the time nomatter if its shown/used or not. If I were you I would be looking through the files and NOT the templates for the code that checks whether CAPTCHA failed. I have never attempted whatever your doing or anything remotely close but if I were you I would start by looking through the files and see if I can figure out where $errorlist gets filled first, then trace back from there until I find what I'm looking for.

I've been as far as I can possibly go, and I can't find anywhere that assigns error values,

All I can think to do is check the $errorlist array itself to see if the vbphrase for a failed CAPTCHA has been assigned to it, which is a bit slack, considering there must be a simpler value somewhere that tells something else that an error has occured. If I check the $errorlist for the CAPTCHA specific error, then when the CAPTCHA error vbprase is changed at a later date, then the conditional used to check the $errorlist will be buggered, and I'll have to re-do everything again. urg!

Problems, problems....

I'm stuck! :erm:

You will have to find this code in register.php.

PHP Code:


		
			
// check for errors
    if (!empty($userdata->errors))
    {
        $_REQUEST['do'] = 'register';

        $errorlist = '';
        foreach ($userdata->errors AS $index => $error)
        {
            $errorlist .= "<li>$error</li>";
        }

        $username = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['username']);
        $email = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['email']);
        $emailconfirm = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['emailconfirm']);
        $parentemail = htmlspecialchars_uni($vbulletin->GPC['parentemail']);
        $selectdst = array($vbulletin->GPC['dst'] => 'selected="selected"');
        $sbselected = array($vbulletin->GPC['showbirthday'] => 'selected="selected"');
        $show['errors'] = true;
    }

Then you can either use a if statement in the foreach which will take a file edit or you can try to find a hook in the user datamanager that will do what you need.
