I am trying to generate jpeg images using PHP and would like to save the output of the php in jpeg format as in,

picture.php --> to save it in the same directory as picture.jpeg

That means saving imagejpeg($image); as jpeg?

Is it possible?

Thanks in advance :)

http://us2.php.net/imagejpeg

bool imagejpeg ( resource image [, string filename [, int quality]])


so you can just do imagejpeg($image, "picture.jpeg");

Thanks man, hehe it seems so straight forward, yet i did not manage to solve it :)

can you tell, what errors do you get?

i did not get any error, only that I cannot manage to save the jpeg image.

Have you used an explicit pathname with the filename? I've had problems in the past juts trying to save to the current directory.

Check the permissions for the directory you are trying to save in. If you are running php as a mod to a apache, you may be having problems.

To test it, set the directory you want to save the images too as 777 to see if that's the problem. Then you can set it to something more secure from there.

so you mean setting it to 777 can secure the folder, sorry i am not too sure about apache server.

777 is full rights, meaning anyone can change your files... check via FTP if you do not have or understand SSH Telnet.

ok thank you very much.

if you cant change the rights using ur ftp try using WS_FTP

smartFTP is better imo
