Embed PHP into a image.

[Voodooengine]

How would i embed PHP into images.

Examples like this (http://www.legendarygamers.net/StatSig3.php).

Ive made the image, but i would like to embed some stats into it.

All help is appreciated. THanks alot!!!

Firstly, you embed images into php not visa versa. You must pass headers to the browser, telling it that the php page is an image e.g.

Header ("Content-type: image/jpeg");

You can then use the ImageString function (look on php.net) to write text over an image.

o ok thanks alot.


ill look it up.

can i use this?

<?php
// create a 100*30 image
$im = imagecreate(100, 30);

// white background and blue text
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$textcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 255);

// write the string at the top left
imagestring($im, 5, 0, 0, "Hello world!", $textcolor);

// output the image
header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
imagejpeg($im);
?>

I was wondering if it is possible to embed a link into this image. I read about it somewhere with gd lib but cant seem to find it?

Basically i want to share this dynamic image but have link back to my site built into it.

Any Ideas?
