[PHP] Imagemangick, can I install on a virtual host?

2002-09-01 Thread Al

I'd like to use some of the Imagemagick functions; but my virtual host 
doesn't include it and won't bother to install it.

Is it practical to install Imagemagick php on a virtual host?

Has php.  It's not a shell account.  FTP is the only basic access.

Phooey on them.  You should switch to me :-)

Sure; it doesn't have to be under /usr or /usr/local by any means.

The trick will be compiling it.  If you don't have an identical (or
nearly so) platform, then you'll have to compile on your server.  I
suppose if you were really sneaky you could write some php scripts that
run your config and compile for you :-) but you'll probably need access
to a shell at least temporarily.
