resizing images direct from camera problem

billybob2005

Just wondering if anyone knew why i can't use PHP to resize images (jpegs) that have been created directly from my digital camera. We are using a script that uses imageresize() and imagecreatefromjpg() which works fine on jpgs that have been created in photoshop. however when we use the same script on a jpg that was created by my digital camera - the script either doesn't do anything or claims that not enough memory has been allocated. Is this because digital camera jpgs are somehow different??

Any help with this would be much appreciated

thanks in advance

I remember a really old version of PHP (forget the number - 4.0.something I think) that had this trouble with the images from one particular camera. I've noticed more recently that Windows XP thinks that they all have dimensions of 0x0. Didn't get to the whys and wherefors - didn't even bother to Google the subject; I upgraded PHP (it needed it anyway) and I don't use Windows to do image manipulation. Sorry if that's no help.
