Re: url tp image in php

We were upgrading our mail server over the weekend and might have lost
some incoming mail. I'm resending this in the hope that anyone who
replied originally will do so again. Thanks!

Re: [WEB400] url tp image in php






Thanks, everyone, for responding. Apparently I was not clear enough about

what I am trying to do. I have a PHP script that reads a lot of stuff
from a database and creates a PDF (using FPDF) which is then displayed in
a browser. Among the items that need to be included in the PDF are images

of the home pages of various other websites. Which home pages are to be
included vary from time to time, and the URLs of the ones that we want are

in the database. I want to be able to capture those home pages as
separate jpgs, put them in the IFS, then use the image method in FPDF to
include them in the PDF that I create.

Also - and forgive me, I guess I should know this - what is the GD
library, to which several people referred?

What kind of data do you want in the image ?

Picture, report data, electronic form, barcode...........................

Seems that you need to provide more input :-)

Hi all - I'm looking for a way for a PHP script to dynamically generate an


image - maybe as a jpg - for a given url. Anybody know how to do this?
