Hi,
My webserver uses php 4.0 ad my sql 3.23 53. I use php designer 2005 to write the php files.
One of my php files is a contact list that i wish to be viewed as pdf. My notebook has winxp .
My questions:
a. How do i know if i can use pdf to generate reports in php ?
b. Is there some setting i need to make in my local machine or on the web server for this ?
I used a script i found online ( see below) to test if pdf would work on my site but this is the error i got
:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function: pdf_open() in /home/virtual/site126/fst/var/www/html/test.php on line 3
<?
// create handle for new PDF document
$pdf = pdf_open(); // this is LINE 3
// open a file
pdf_open_file($pdf, "philosophy.pdf");
// start a new page (A4)
pdf_begin_page($pdf, 595, 842);
// get and use a font object
$arial = pdf_findfont($pdf, "Arial", "host", 1); pdf_setfont($pdf, $arial, 10);
// print text
pdf_show_xy($pdf, "There are more things in heaven and earth, Horatio,", 50, 750); pdf_show_xy($pdf, "than are dreamt of in your philosophy", 50, 730);
// end page
pdf_end_page($pdf);
// close and save file
pdf_close($pdf);
?>
Pl advise. Thanks.
