Image gif

[hsingist]

Hi Gurus,
I am trying to write a php script that basically returns output as a GIF. Since gif support has been stopped by GD library, how can I go about doing this?

I wanna a link like
http://xxxx/image.php?somethg=xxx
which returns a GIF. I don't need to create the gif as I already precreated. I just need php to feed the GIF to the user through php.

Thanks a million in advance!!!

Then it's just a matter of reading a file (with something like [man]readfile[/man] and outputting it under a Content-Type: header of image/gif.
