TOPIC: Captcha URL Bug

I installed your component today and it is really nice, thank you!

I did find a little problem with the captcha image URL, please note the double forward slashes (//) after the domain name.

www.mysite.com //components/com_comment/joscomment/captcha.php?refid=a4e63deb3e895bb01cc0c1fdf8f97e06

I have Joomla's default SEF turned on (with mod rewrite) and this caused a problem on my site. Basically the captcha would not appear.

My URL rewrite does not rewrite anything in the /components folder. I had to modify my rewrite to include //components and then the captcha appeared!

Anyway, just thought I'd post this in case others have experienced similar issues due to the double forward slashes.

Thank you

Oh, thank you for the bug report. I will fix this in beta2 - thanks!

I took care of it. That took me five minutes

If you'd like to fix it yourself right now Jeff, open up this file...
yourwebsite.net/components/com_comment/joscomment/security.php
...and go to line number 30 or around there, just search for the text ?refid= as it might have changed between Beta1 and my local trunk copy.

Change the line from......to...
Well you might have noticed the /components there yourself, but I make a habit of being verbose in many things I say

Thank you Jonus for that fix.

I personally handled the problem with my URL rewrite filter before you posted the fix. I simply compensated for the double forward slash.

This way when I upgrade this excellent component and if the problem is fixed or is not fixed, I will be perfectly OK.

If the bug is fixed in the new version, I'll simply remove that double slash condition from my filter.

Indeed, it is already committed and the Beta 2 release will have the fix, you can see it here dev.compojoom.com/repositories/diff/joco...security.php?rev=221
