Online PHP Font Previewers?

[Golden_Eagle]

Can anyone point my in the right direction on how I can make one of these.

Or get one to edit into my own site?

I am brand new to PHP, but can understand the basics of Javascript, HTML and even CGI.

PHP has got me stumped.

This is something that I would look superb on my site.

Does anyone have any ideas where I can start?

All help would be hugely appreciecated.

Although this is easily done it doesn't seem that too many scripts have been written to do this. It's nothing more than generating an image on the fly inserting the text from the user and using the font specified. PHP can do all that quite easily. Here are a couple of code snippets on the subject.

The script on the site you posted was probably written by the site owners or they hired someone to write it for them. Doesn't seem to be any available anywhere. Maybe i'll write one if I ever get some free time. I've done one in Java once so maybe it's time for one in PHP.
