Are you sending the same cookies with the edit attempt and the attempt to
fetch the captcha image?

Hi guys,
So I make an edit logged out and get the following back from Wikipedia:
{"edit":{"captcha":{"type":"image","mime":"image/png","id":"2050100762","url":"/w/index.php?title=Special:Captcha/image&wpCaptchaId=2050100762"},"result":"Failure"}}
So I use the url to try and download the image, but get nothing. Visiting
the link in my browser gives
Internal Error
Requested bogus captcha image
Any idea what’s occurring?
Best regards,
Richard Cook
