This class method is supposed to generate one of those random images
you see on forms, you know, with the letters and numbers all mixed up
for people to type it in for security and repost protection purposes.
This method, however, fails. No errors, no warnings, no notices, not
even a broken image, it just DIES on the spot, completely, stops dead
on the line:
[PHP]
if (!$image && strcmp($type, 'gif') != 0) $image =
imagecreatetruecolor(150, 30); else $im = imagecreate(100, 50) or

[/PHP]
I've no clue what to do.
Thanx

I'd just use javascript....
in the head section:
<script>
var s = new Array("imgsrc1","imgsrc2","etc.")
document.getElementById("RandomImage").src =
Math.round(Math.random()*s.length)
</script>
in body section:
<img id="RandomImage" src="" /> | |

I'm not going to attempt to debug your code, but firstly, do you
definitely have error reporting level set to E_ALL? Secondly, you're
using eval() on the line before this, so there's a good chance that this
could cock things up. Incidentally, why are you using eval() at all?

What? So rather than use a server-side randomly-generated image, you'd
use a client-side selection from a pre-defined list of images? In
JavaScript?

I debug by setting error_reporting() to E_ALL, however, that does not
show anything, not even notices that could be spawned.
Secondly, the reason I'm using eval() is very simple: I will be
generating a random image that could be a PNG, a GIF, a JPEG, a TIFF, a
BMP, etc., depending on the immediate need, thus, one command like
imagepng() or imagejpeg() is insufficient.

And when javascript is turned off? Not to mention what <noscript>
option could possibly match that considering it's a federal mandate for
government sites to follow Section 508 compilance..

** UPDATE **
Turns out that the Linux package "php-gd" was never installed. An
update with that and httpd restart fixed the lack-of-GD problem.
However, there is another problem: I am trying to create a brand new
image file. How do you do that using GD? Each time I try the image
file does not exist.
