GD is an image library. You need GD version 2.0.1 or higher to use
imagecopyresampled().

phpinfo() would tell you. Look for the block titled "GD". If you don't
see one, you don't have GD support in your PHP build.

Hello Rasmus,
9 Dec 2001, 1:55:56, you've written:

RL> see one, you don't have GD support in your PHP build.
And what if it is written there that i've got "GD version 1.6.2 or
higher"?

Hi All... (again)
I was just wondering if anyone out there has made a function that will
compute how long time (seconds, milliseconds) it will take to load a page?
I see some search engines have a function that displays how long time the
search took, and I'm looking for the same thing, to compare different
designs and improve loading time for my "viewers".
Anyone?

the search time is different than the page load time....google for example
can find thousands of records in a tenth of a second, yet it takes longer to
get that html result back to your browser....you could estimate page
download time by calculating the filesize and using the connection
speed....certainly not 100% accurate, but it will give you a way of
estimating.....

Or this:
at the beginning of your script, get the time using microtime
then at the bottom, you could get the time again, subtract
the difference and voila, thats how long the execution time
of your script is.

Basically I agree with you. But the second time to get time must be done
after the page is rendered on local browser. So I suggest to use Javascript
for the second time to get time, and pass the first time value into a js
function.

What about the small difference there will be between server time and local

This is an Einstein problem :)) Maybe we need a time server ....
However, we can have an alternative solution to get round turn time.
Let's say on page A there's a link to a backend script. When the link
is clicked, then use javascript to pick up current time T1 and pass it to
the script. This script will send a page back to browser. Let's say this
is page B. Time T1 is passed to the js of page B. And at the end of
page B a js function will pick up current time T2. When the page
rendered at local browser, we have both T1 and T2. Thus we calculate
the time difference of a round turn. I know it is not a final solution
but this is acurate.
Hope someone else out there can give better solution.

Absolutely you are doing in the right way:) But pls make sure that
string comparison is from left to right. For example, "16" is larger
than "15-12-01".

Assuming you have the variable member_id (for the member in question)...
Get the score for that member and store it to $score...
"SELECT score FROM members WHERE id=$member_id"
Then to determine rank, just do this...
SELECT COUNT(*)+1 as rank FROM members WHERE SCORE>$score;

I have a friend who is using an ISP that uses php4.0.3pl1 . It appears that
session_register is not working between pages. In script A, the session var
gets registered and shows registered using session_is_registered('testvar');
However, when script B is called, a session-start is issued and testvar is
not registered. Running the identical code, but not with his ISP, under
4.06, it works perfectly. Are there known issues?

Hi,
(Sorry for the cross post, I posted it in the wrong place the first time)
I've got MSSQL 2000 running on Win2000 Svr. Linux 2.2.16 running Apache
1.3.22, freetds 0.53, and PHP 4.0.6.
I can connect and run queries no problem, but when an error is raised (with
raiserror) on the SQL box, mssql_query (...) just returns false, and I don't
get anything in $php_errormsg or mssql_get_last_message(). Is there a way
to tell what the error was? (The query can return one of two errors, I need
to know which it was.)
Many thanks for any help you can give,
Cheers,
Dave.
