[RESOLVED] Problem with making images

Gonwee

I setup php and apache on my computer and for the most part it works fine.(a2.0 php5.1.5)

I was sitting here looking up how to make images with php tried it a couple times, didn't work. So i uploaded to my godaddy server and it worked there.

Is there a setting i need to change to be able to do it on my local server?

And another more php and mysql related thing. I've seen mysql queries with a . in them(like table1.a and table2.b) how does that work? I'm assuming its bringing back data thats tied together threw foreign keys or something like that, but i don't know how it works. So if theres a guide that someone can link me to i'd appreciate it.

You need GD compiled into php and enabled.

The sql syntax youve seen is simply table.field.

Is there any easy way to do that?

If you want to keep using your manual install of PHP and Apache.
Look for the line

;extensions=php_gd2.dll

and Delete the preceding ';' so change it to...

extensions=php_gd2.dll

You may need to change the extensions dir post back here with the folders the are in your C:\PHP folder.

Thanks.

If you have a select like this

select a.name, b.name from table_1 a, table_2 b where a.name=b.name

Here i select the field name from both table_1 and table_2, the a and b are an alias for those table names, and i only want the rows where the name in table_1 = name in table_2.

Hope this was what you where asking about, if not ... 🙂

Ok, thanks. I had already removed the semi-colon, but php was look for an ini and never found it. I had to add the ini location to apache and that fixed it.

And yeah that was what i meant.
