[PHP] Paths and ImageCreate(), GetImageSize()...
I'm having a hard time figuring out exactly how paths should be listed when pointing to files using the ImageCreate(), ImageCopyResized(), etc. commands. My images are in a sub-folder called img, and my script is in another sub-folder called scripts (at the same level as img). It appears that GetImageSize() only works for me when I put the full URL in front of the file name like this... GetImageSize(http://www.mysite.com/img/photo.jpg;) Is that the only way for this to work? The following variations all produce an error saying it can't file the file photo.jpg: GetImageSize(../img/photo.jpg) GetImageSize(/img/photo.jpg) GetImageSize(img/photo.jpg) At least GetImageSize() works with a URL. I can't say the same for any of the ImageCreate() functions, which when used with all of the above path variations including the URL, produce an error stating it can't locate the photo.jpg file. Permissions for the img folder are set to 777, and I can load the file using IMG SRC=/img/photo.jpg with no problems. Why can't I get these functions to find the file using the same path?

Because /img/photo.jpg is relative to your DOCUMENT_ROOT. The easiest way to make sure you've got the right path is prepend the DOCUMENT_ROOT ($_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT'] or $HTTP_SERVER_VARS['DOCUMENT_ROOT']). -- Jason Wong - Gremlins Associates - www.gremlins.com.hk /* Humor in the Court: Q: What is the meaning of sperm being present?
