Upgrade PHP 4.2.3 to support GD on Win2000

jowatkins

Hi,

I want to upgrade my PHP install to support GD. However, I've only managed to find one site to download this from, http://www.boutell.com/gd/, and this only seems to have the 'nix version. Does anyone know where I can get the windows version from and how I go about installing it?

Thanks in advance,

OK, I did it at last.

For anyone else wanting to do this you need the php_gd2.dll. Place this in whichever directory you've set as your include path. I also put it in c:/PHP and the windows file for good measure.

Then just uncomment the

extension=php_gd.dll

line in php.ini and of course change it to:

extension=php_gd2.dll

Good Luck

You can get the extensions from the zip distribution of php (www.php.net/download).Download the zip instead of the installation and you will get a lot of extensions.To activate one do loke in previous post.Also be sure your php.ini is in your winnt folder.
