    installing gd2

    Where do I get the gd

    Supposedly gd2 is supposed to come with PHP 4.3 and up.

    I installed 4.3.4 a few weeks back (the windows installation)
    and removed the semicolin (;) from in from of the line in php.ini

    After a few errors I searched my system and could not find php_gd.dll or
    php_gd2.dll

    Where do I get this extension?

      Evidently extensions don't come with the Windows installer of PHP 4.3.3 and
      on.
      The zip package includes the extensions.

      So now I have a different problem, still with install gd2
      extension=php_g d2.dll
      is set in the php.ini file
      I extracted php_gd2.dll from the zip installation of PHP.

      I have "C:\PHP\extensi ons" set in my PATH and the php_gd2.dll in that
      folder.

      Whenever I try to run phpinfo() I get the same warning...
      "Unable to load dynamic library './php_gd2.dll' - The specified module could
      not be found."

      Is there something else that needs to be installed?
      Anything else?

        Set extension_dir in php.ini to the full path to the extensions directory.
