dynamische Bilder

[Hartmut]

Um dymamische Bilder zu gengerieren braucht man ein Zusatzmodul, oder? (ich hab' da irgendwas gelesen)

Wo bekomm' ich das her?
Brauch ich es auch für die Windows-Version oder nur für die Linux-Version?
Wie installier ich das ganze unter Linux?
Wie sehe ich, ob es unter Linux bereits installiert worden ist?

Hi Manfred!

Setup der GD library mit PHP, zum Kreieren dynamischer Grafiken:

If you use php on unix: you have to compile in support from gd in php.

1. get the source distribution of php and apache

2. get and install the GD library from http://www.boutell.com/gd/

3. read the INSTALL file in the php source dir for instructions

4. make and install php/apache with gd support using :

./configure --with-gd[=DIR] (plus your other configure directives)

Include GD support (DIR is GD's install dir).

I don't know all the details, since I don't use GD myself, but the GIF
format was recently (as of 9/20/1999) copyrighted so that you can no
longer use the most recent GD to do dynamic GIFs.

Options:
1. Use an old GD library from somewhere other than the URL above.
2. Migrate to PNGs.
