&lt;img src=php?&gt;

<img src=php?>

Hi! I've seen alot about this issue, but nothing seems to help!!
I have 3 files:
1 HTML
2 PHP
3 IMAGE

HTML:kuva.html

PHP:toimi.php

<?

header("Content-type: image/gif");
$file = "loading.gif";
$fp = fopen($file, "r");
$fileData = fread($fp, filesize($file));
fclose($fp);
echo ($fileData);
?>

IMAGE:loading.gif

Still I get a broken link on my html.
Where is the problem? should be simple and straight forward. I'm using win98se & IE5, and the files are in a unix machine on the other side of the world. I really don't know what else information to give. I hope someone can help!!!

The 2 things that I would check is to make sure you are accessing the right file and that the user that the webserver runs as has privileges to read the image.

Make sure you are accessing the right image file by putting the full filesystem path in there...

$file = "/path/to/images/loading.gif";

Make sure that the web server user has access to the image file...

chmod +r loading.gif

Thanks for your reply, I'm pretty sure there's no broblem in accessing the file, I can print it on screen as chars.... any other ideas?

What if you'll try to change kuva.html to kuva.php?

Anon

use this simple code in your php file and it will work fine:
<?
readfile("image.gif/image.jpg");
?>

that's all

Since all GIF support was removed from the GD library in version 1.6, this function is not available if you are using that version of the GD library.

The following code snippet allows you to write more portable PHP applications by auto-detecting the type of GD support which is available. Replace the sequence Header("Content-type: image/gif"); ImageGIF($im); by the more flexible sequence:

<?php
if (function_exists("imagegif")) {
Header("Content-type: image/gif");
ImageGIF($im);
}
elseif (function_exists("imagejpeg")) {
Header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
ImageJPEG($im, "", 0.5);
}
elseif (function_exists("imagepng")) {
Header("Content-type: image/png");
ImagePNG($im);
}
elseif (function_exists("imagewbmp")) {
Header("Content-type: image/vnd.wap.wbmp");
ImageWBMP($im);
}
else
die("No image support in this PHP server");
?>
