Toilet Leaking, tank to bowel

Hello,

I recently had a problem where my toilet was leaking from beneath the bowel where it meets the tank. I went & bought a repair kit replaced the washers and the gasket, still leaked. Went & bought a different gasket, leaked even worse. Finally I threw in the towel and had a plumber put a new kit in. The toilet was fine for a couple of hours then I noticed a little water on the floor, crap it still leaks. The confusing thing to me is that it leaks intermittenly. I noticed that in the morning it is bone dry, so I flushed the toilet and noticed a little water forming on the bottom of the gasket. Because it is dry at times that tells me there must not be a crack but if you flush the toilet too much then it could leak from the tank gasket. Any ideas on what is wrong and how to fix? Appreciate any comments. Thanks
