Hi all,

funtions to create and manipulate GIF and JPEG images? Is this
functionallity available in PHP and do i need to change setting or do i
need to install aditional dll (where can i get them) and do i need to
change the php.ini?

Thanx!

Use the gd library

http://uk.php.net/gd

The manual says its bundled with php 4.4.2 on windows, don't think you
will need to change anything.

GD, normally already present, activate by removing ";" before
extension=php_g d2.dll in your php.ini file.

When i look in C;/php/dlls i see the file gds32.dll I suppose that this
is the image library? In which file do i have to remove the ;? I only
see php.ini-dist and php.ini-recommended, no php.ini...

Thanx!,

The image library should be in c:\php\extensio ns

If you have php up and running on your computer then make a script that
calls phpinfo(), save the script in you web space, open the script in
your browser and the location of php.ini will be shown 5/6 rows from
the top.

If php.ini doesnt exist yet then you need copy+amend php.ini-dist or
recommended then rename as php.ini, save the new version in
c:\windows\syst em32 unless you have added c:\php to the PATH
environment variable
