Session does not match PHP image

I am wondering why the characters in the image generated by this script do not match the characters set for the session. I can not find why this is so, if someone can help, that would be great. Thanks, Lee.

// Font directory + font name
$font = 'wordpress/wp-content/themes/boldy/fonts/SF Juggernaut Bold.ttf';
// Total number of lines
$lineCount = 20;
// Size of the font
$fontSize = 19;
// Height of the image
$height = 38;
// Width of the image
$width = 120;
$img_handle = imagecreate ($width, $height) or die ("Cannot Create image");
// Set the Background Color RGB
$backColor = imagecolorallocate($img_handle, 242, 242, 242);
// Set the Line Color RGB
$lineColor = imagecolorallocate($img_handle, 207, 207, 207);
// Set the Text Color RGB
$txtColor = imagecolorallocate($img_handle, 95, 95, 95);

// Generate
$string = "bcdefghijklmopqrstwxyz023456789";
for($i=0;$i<6;$i++){
    $pos = rand(0,36);
    $str .= $string{$pos};
}

$textbox = imagettfbbox($fontSize, 0, $font, $str) or die('Error in imagettfbbox function');

$x = ($width - $textbox[4])/2;
$y = ($height - $textbox[5])/2;

imagettftext($img_handle, $fontSize, 0, $x, $y, $txtColor, $font , $str) or die('Error in imagettftext function');

for($i=0;$i<$lineCount;$i++){
    $x1 = rand(0,$width);$x2 = rand(0,$width);
    $y1 = rand(0,$width);$y2 = rand(0,$width);
    imageline($img_handle,$x1,$y1,$x2,$y2,$lineColor);
}

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($img_handle,NULL,100);
imagedestroy($img_handle);

session_start();
$_SESSION['img_number'] = $str;

UPDATE: . When testing, I noticed that the first time the image is loaded, the session is NOT established, so when the image is updated, the session is established with the last $ str value

You may have problems calling session_start () if your headers have already been sent.

Edit

header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($img_handle,NULL,100);
imagedestroy($img_handle);

session_start();
$_SESSION['img_number'] = $str;

For

session_start();
header('Content-Type: image/jpeg');
imagejpeg($img_handle,NULL,100);
imagedestroy($img_handle);

$_SESSION['img_number'] = $str;

If you are debugging your script using something like firebug or devtools, it calls your image twice.

Try disabling your firebug / devtools and you will see PROFIT.
