RE: [PHP] FW: Resizing Pictures
OK, here you have lots of options using PHP gd extensions just to start (or not). Just specifying width and height in your html IMG statement will result in the image being resized by the browser, however, the entire image file must be transferred to the browser. http://www.php.net/manual/en/ref.image.php As before, downsizing tends to work much better that upsizing (no pun's intended). http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecopyresized.php Hope this helps, Warren Vail -Original Message- From: Ryan Schefke [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, April 19, 2004 8:59 PM To: 'Warren Vail'; 'Php-General-Help' Subject: RE: [PHP] FW: Resizing Pictures Hi Warren, Thanks for the reply; however, that wasn't the answer I was searching for.

RE: [PHP] FW: Resizing Pictures
You can resize a file using the GD library. Look for the GD library functions in php manual.

RE: [PHP] FW: Resizing Pictures
Maybe you should take a look at PHPs Image functions, finding out which function matches your needs is not that hard :-) If you don't find the right functions you can also take a look at this list's archives as this topic was raised around 5 times 04/04 :-p -- red [...] > Hi Warren, > > Thanks for the reply; however, that wasn't the answer I was searching for. > Using PHP, I would like to resize a file once it's store in a directory on > a (my) webserver. > > Anyone know?

Thanks!
im creating a new image in this function, but you get the idea..
function generateThumb($ID)
{
$source_image = GALLERY_ROOT . "images/". $ID . ".jpg";
$dest_image = GALLERY_ROOT . "thumbnails/" . $ID . ".jpg";
$source_id = imageCreateFromJPEG($source_image);
$picsize= getimagesize($source_image);
$source_x = $picsize[0];
$source_y = $picsize[1];
$dest_x = THUMB_X;
$dest_y = THUMB_Y;
$target_id = imagecreatetruecolor($dest_x,$dest_y);
$target_pic = imagecopyresampled($target_id,$source_id,
0,0,0,0,$dest_x,$dest_y,$source_x,$source_y);
return imagejpeg($target_id,$dest_image);
}
