I'm trying to get the facebook captcha image in c# and then
display it in my app and send the response back to facebook. My app
works fine which basically communicates with facebook but after a while
it asks for captcha. I incorporated the functionality for entering the
captcha and when I send it to facebook using webclient it just sens
another captcha in the response. I have double checked with the
TemperData inn Firefox I'm setting the correct header information and
all the fields, but still I'm not being redirected to the right page. As
a matter of fact in the response header one field I could see is
missing as compare to the TemperData.

resp = req.GetResponse();
streamReader = new StreamReader(resp.GetResponseStream());
s = streamReader.ReadToEnd().Trim();
index = s.IndexOf("https://www.facebook.com/captcha/tfbimage.php?");
if (index == -1)
continue;
string uri = s.Substring(index);
uri = uri.Substring(0, uri.IndexOf("\\\"") - 1);
string captcha_persist_data = s.Substring(s.IndexOf("captcha_persist_data"));
captcha_persist_data = captcha_persist_data.Substring(captcha_persist_data.IndexOf("value") + 7);
captcha_persist_data = captcha_persist_data.Substring(0, 1156);

Anyone can help me with this?
