RE: [PHP] Generate inline image
Hi: all: With helps from Martin, now I can create images on the fly. I used code like img src=\generateimage.php\ to create my images. However, with this option, how can I pass a variable to generateimage.php? The php scrip is supposed to take a variable: say ImageID and looks up the MySQL database for all values and then draw the graph. Anyone can give me some help?

How about the obvious way? img src=generateimage.php?id=3 -Rasmus On Tue, 28 May 2002, Engineering Software Center wrote: Hi: all: With helps from Martin, now I can create images on the fly.

Re: [PHP] Generate inline image
Your IMG tag calls a script (imagemaker.php) which generates the image for you the parent script (eg home.php) doesn't generate the image inline, to the best of my knowledge.

How do I generate gif inline images using PHP's image functions using GD libs. Everything I have seen so far requires a header before generating the image. But I want the image embedded into a table with other texts. Thank you for the help. Write the php to generate the image as a separate file. Then call that file from an image tag. Eg. img src=generate_image.php CYA, Dave -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
