[RESOLVED] GD - Saving output to a file

[citizenerasedx]

I have a script which creates a very simple image on the fly, using an array from a seperate file. It displays the 5 previous songs I have listened to in iTunes.

However, I'm trying to code it for use as a forum and myspace image, so it needs to be an acceptable file for both cases. Preferably a jpeg or gif.

Is it possible to output the final result from the GD code to a seperate image file that is updated on time-schedules, or processing a jpeg file as php coding in a way which would allow the image to be displayed?

Thanks,

Of course. Read the PHP Manual on [man]imagegif/man, [man]imagejpeg/man and [man]imagepng/man.

Nevermind, thanks for the help anyway.

I looked at the imagegif documentation and it was a lot more in detail, now I have the script working fully. Thanks.

Well, it might be something like:

imagepng($image, 'filename.png');
