Hi Guys,

I have this small problem with the size of resized image, I have the image wich is 1MB with 1200x1600px and when I resize it to 60x80 the size is 16KB and it's BMP. What I want is to be JPG and then should be about 2KB.

I dont see the mistake in my code, please advice.

$photo = "myFile.jpg";
list($ow,$oh) = getimagesize($photo);
$nw = 60;
$nh = $oh * $nw / $ow;
$small = imagecreatetruecolor($nw,$nh);
$big = imagecreatefromjpeg($photo);
imagecopyresized($small,$big,0,0,0,0,$nw,$nh,$ow,$oh);
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($small);

I don't see a mistake in your code, either. More likely, then, the error is in your local machine/browser, or your perception; but I guess it's possible, also, that it's a problem with the server it's sitting on.....

the server is on my computer

and what do you mean by "or your perception"

My computer is running Apache 1.3.33 and PHP 5.0.1 on FreeBSD 6.0. Care to be more specific?

Well, for one thing, how do you know it's outputting a bitmap? Have you tried it from another client machine? What's the URI ... maybe someone else could check and see if it looks wrong to them, too....

All I'm saying is, "you're right ... given a JPEG image, your code outputs a resized JPEG when I tested it...."

So, we're looking for other possibilities, or at least how your setup might differ from mine....

I think it may be a matter of how the image is being saved; I remember using IE and trying to save a JPEG it was displaying, and having the browser insist on saving it as a BMP for some stupid reason that now escapes me.

SOLVED

the problem was that I was using session_start() for managing user authetification before the script that displays the image.
