How do I echo a binary array (transparent pixel)

[Leif Wessman]

Hi,

What am I doing wrong here? I want to display a transparent pixel...

<?
$transparent1x1 = array (71, 73, 70, 56, 57, 97, 1, 0, 1, 0, -128, 0,
0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 33, -7, 4, 1, 0, 0, 0, 0, 44, 0, 0, 0, 0, 1, 0,
1, 0, 0, 2, 2, 68, 1, 0, 59);
header("Content-type: " . image_type_to_m ime_type (IMAGETYPE_GIF) );
echo $transparent1x1 ;
?>

Using echo on an array will just output the type which is "Array" you
need to echo the values so...

for ($i = 0; $i < count($transpar ent1x1); $i++)
echo $trasnparent1x1[$i];

N.B. I don't know if the above code will produce the desired effect for
a pixel, I have never done anything like that.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It should be echo chr($transparen t1x1[$i]) or printf("%c",
$transparent1x1[$i]). Otherwise, echo will output ascii.
