gd-lib on php install?

[Amine Benali]

2 noob's questions:

1- I've php 4.3 installed on Win xp/Apache. How do I check that
GD-library is working.
I haven't installed it yet because I read somewhere that php 4.higher
comes with gd-lib.

2- In the event I must install it, is there a gd-lib-on-php install
workthrough?

Thank you,

Amine

create a php page with just

<?php
phpinfo();
?>

If GD is installed there will be a section in there for it with details of
how it is configured.
Alternatively, just try out a script example from php.net (etc) that uses
one of the GD functions.

php.net/gd has info how to install the gd

php online manual is simply fantastic, get used to using it, it'll save
you a lot of hassle.

I recently installed php4.3 on win32.

All i had to do was set my extensions path right and remove the ; before
gd2.dll in the list with extensions.
