Need transparent background while generating headings at run time

[neovantage]

Hey,
i have found a code which generate headings at run time. here is my code which generate headings at run time

<img src="generate-headings.php?w=125&amp;hd=Code" />

generate-headings.php Page

$im = imagecreatetruecolor($_GET[w], 18);
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0,$_GET[w], 18, $white);
$text = $_GET[hd];
$font = "fonts/myriad.ttf";
imagettftext($im,14,0,0,13,$black,$font,$text);
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);

It creates images at run time successfully. But it did not allow me to create headings with transparent background. Is there any way to fixed that issue. Kindly help me out to sort this my problem. I always get a very excellent response from PHP Masters who do a lot for me here in this community so hope to fix this problem too.

I haven't much experience with creating transparent backgrounds, but have you played around with the:

imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0,$_GET[w], 18, $white);

I imagine that that is where is it making the background?

Yeh but without that it did not create heading and i want to create heading without background image color etc. I need to create transparent heading
