With Includes / Font Tag
I was wondering how I would be able to strip the <font> tags from a file when I include it so it can take on the characteristics of my own stylesheet instead of the font tag attributes.
Dynamic CSS - Changing Font Size
I've written a bit of script that allows a user to change the font size on a web page. I am aware that this can be done via browser settings, but the client wants the feature on the web page. My script uses a cookie to keep the users font choice persistent. However, when I run the script, the web page doesn't recognize the users font choice unless I refresh the page. Once I refresh the page, everything works fine. So I'm confused as to why the browser doesn't recognize the font choice right away. Any suggestions? Code:
Changing Font Size Of GDF Fonts Over PNG Image
I used imagecreatefrompng("ur.png"), and created a png image. And used imagestring($im, $fontgdf, $leftPos, $height, $text, $txtcolor); to write over the png image. I downloaded and used gdf fonts. Function imagestring() does not take fontsize as parameter, therefore i could not change the font size.

PHP Includes Vs. Server Side Includes
Up until now I've been using the PHP include(" "); function to parse items such as navigation bars into my web pages. But I've heard a lot about the SSI way to do it, and I was wondering which is better. For example, is SSI faster because the server doesn't have to load the PHP (if it does at all). So which is generally better for that specific task?
PS Font
I have been trying to use .pfb fonts (Type 1) to generate dynamic images. However the text in the images is very aliased and blurred. This is of course not because of the font or the font style itself. Please let me know if you have any ideas or opinions about it. Code snippet: $SIZE = 14; $FONT_PATH = "/usr/X11R6/lib/X11/fonts/Type1/hell.pfb"; $FONT = ImagePSLoadFont($FONT_PATH); $im = ImageCreate(100, 100); $white = ImageColorAllocate($im, 255, 255, 255); $gray = ImageColorAllocate($im, 134, 134, 134); // draw ImagePSText($im, $str, $FONT, $SIZE, $gray, $gray, 0, $SIZE,0,0,0,16); ImagePSFreeFont($FONT);
Can You Arc A Font With PHP?
I am writing a program with the GD library and need to arc a font like Photoshop does. I know how to write text, slant a font, etc., but I cannot figure out how to arc it and do other things. Is this possible with PHP?
PHP Font Boundingbox Help
I'm trying to understand how to work with bounding boxes around text with the GD2 library. I thought I understood the concepts and wrote a simple program to make sure. Here it is: <?php putenv('GDFONTPATH=c:windowsfonts'); $bbox=imagettfbbox(10,0,"arial.ttf","Hello World"); echo "upper left ($bbox[6],$bbox[7])-----upper right ($bbox[4],$bbox[5])<br><br>"; echo "lower left ($bbox[0],$bbox[1])-----lower right ($bbox[2],$bbox[3])"; ?> The idea is for me to find out the bounding box coordinates for a Hellow World message. The output produced has me very confused though. It shows the coordinates as follows: upper left (-1,-10)-----upper right (66,-10) lower left (-1,-1)-----lower right (66,-1) I understand how the lower left coordinate can be -1,-1, and the lower right coordinate seems logical, too. How, though, can the upper coordinates have y values of -10? That's below the baseline! It would seem logical that since I specified a font size of 10 my Y coordinates on the top would be roughly 10 more than the y coordinates of the lower corners. So, I'd expect the upper coordinates to be something like (-1,10) and (66,10). Where is the negative 10 coming from?

Thoughts On Font-size Control
I have been researching some different techniques to controll font size on a webpage and offer users a way to easily manipulate the font and was curious as to what methods others were using/had used in the past for this sort of thing. I have been using static point font sizes on a stylesheet. With a script that swaps out the stylesheet for one with larger point sizes upon clicking a button. I chose this technique out of all the others I have seen because it seemed to offer the most compatability with slightly out of date browers etc. However the built in font controll from IE, Firefox etc. still wreaks havoc on my sites layout. I am worried about using em's as I just dont see how to make that work in conjunction with images that are far less plyable than the text and other design elements. is there any way to supress the view>textsize? Has anyone had success with em's? Or does anyone have an interesting way to tackle this problem?

Imagettftext Error Cannot Open/Find Font
I uploaded the font to a folder I created called fonts, but it doesn't seem to wanna open. I tried CHMOD the file to 777 the folder to 777.

Chinese, Japanese Font Issues With Mail
Can anyone provide me the simplest working solution to send mails in a multilingual website that too with no issues relating to display of characters, as of now I have find a solution which is working quite well, which is to paste a japanese or chinese lang. sentences to an editor like dreamweaver in design mode and paste the generated char code eg. #1045 to the database table to create a mail template, this is working fine but a labour job. Can you provide me with a more intelligent solution? such as by setting the charSet or something else as of I am using the phpmailer class for the purpose...
Encoding/characterset/font Family Confusion
I could use a bit of guidance on the following matter. I am starting a new project now and must make some decisions regarding encoding. Environment: PHP4.3, Postgres7.4.3 I must be able to receive forminformation and store that in a database and later produce it on screen on the client (just plain HTML). Nothing special. I do this for many years, but I never paid a lot of attention to special characters. A few day ago I discovered that the euro-sign is not defined in all fontfamilies. They cannot produce the right sign no matter if I use € or the hexadecimal equivalent. After a little research I found I could put font-tags around the euro-sign with another font-family (Arial in this case) to get the Euro sign. I am completely graphical impaired, and only understand programmingcode (and HTML/JavaScript of course) , so this is a weak point on my side, hence this question. I target on Europe only at the moment (no need for Chineese charactersupport) That said, will the following setup make sense? Postgresql db encoding scheme: LATIN1 In the headers of all my HTML: content-type: text/html charset: iso-8859-1 A few related questions: 1) Will people be able to copy/paste info from other sources (like wordprocessing programs and other websites) into my forms? 2) Can I use regular expressions as I am used to (ASCII) in my PHP code? Will I match e acute, eurosign, etc? 3) Will the roundtrip describe here under have problems with normal expected european characters? client copies some text from some source -> paste in the form -> receive by PHP -> insert in Postgresql (or update) -> retrieve from postgresql -> display as HTML (with content-type: text/html charset: iso-8859-1) Is that OK? Any pitfalls? Should I maybe use UTF-8?
Font Color In Jpeg Image (nearly) Always Orange
I am trying to run a basic script that displays an existing jpeg image and writes some text over it. Sounds simple, but I cannot seem to be able to colour the font correctly. In the example below it should be black but it comes out orange. In fact, even if I change the colour to 0, 0, 255 it's orange. I've read in the PHP documentation (the user contributed notes) that there are issues with jpeg font colouring. But I've not seen any details. Can anyone shed light on this for me please? The example code below is called as a function. The $image variable is a path to the existing image file and the $ttf variable is a path to a TrueType font. The $text variable contains a text string. header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); $base_image = imagecreatefromjpeg($image); $font = $ttf; $fontcolor = imagecolorallocate($base_image, 0, 0, 0); imagettftext($base_image, 18, 0, 10, 100, $fontcolor, $font, $text); imagejpeg($base_image); imagedestroy($base_image);

Displaying Php Chart Text On My Host Using An Uploaded Font
Hi im trying to get a chart to display using php. I get an error at the moment when i use the function (or any requiring an uploaded font to be used): imagettftext($image, 6, 0, 0, $initial_point, $colorRed, 'Verdana', $initial_value); The error stems from the loading of the verdana ('Verdana') font file which IS uploaded and works locally but for some reason the script cant find the file on your site so its returning an error. Does anyonw know what what might be the cause of this? For example I am using a mac to work locally and then uploading to the php server which is linuz might i need to use diferent fonts or something on the server?

PHP Includes And SEO

Includes In Php As Cgi
I am in the process of moving a site to a new server. On the old server, these two functions: <?include("header.shtml");?> and <?include("footer.shtml");?> allowed me to successful include a simple header and footer on every page of the site. However: on the new server, php is installed as cgi. What function will allow me to successfully include the header and footer files with this configuration? The host swears that shtml works perfectly as an include for the php installed as cgi configuration -- but I cannot get it to work with this standard command.
Includes
i am using an the following code with an include file on every page on my site... //GET NAME OF THIS PAGE IN CASE CONNECTION FAILS $failedpage = basename($PHP_SELF); //INCLUDE THE GENERAL FUNCTIONS PAGE include("../resources/functions.php"); //CONNECT TO DATABASE Connectme($failedpage); what happens here is that the page gets its own name, it includes the functions page which contains the function Connectme which of course connects it to the database. it then calls the function Connectme passing the name of the page the call is coming from as $failedpage. So the first thing every page does is connect to the database, if the connect fails then there is a clause in the Connectme function which waits a few seconds and then retries. now this works fine but i have noticed something very odd happening in the functions.php. the function.php is an include file, before it makes the connect in the function Connectme it includes a file called myconst.h which contains all the passwords for the connection to the database. so the include file function.php has an include file myconst.h, with me so far? the myconst.h resides in the same folder as function.php and so the include is simply... include("myconst.h"); however it fails to find it, if i change the include to... include("../resources/myconst.h"); which is the same thing as the folder it resides in is called resources, it works? now i'm not mad! i've tested it about 5 times and systematically every time the first fails and the second works!
PHP Includes
Basically I have a layout index page. What I want to accomplish is display my content pages WITHIN my index page and I dont want to use iframes. Code: <?php if(strstr($id, "..") || $id[0]=="/") $id = ""; if(empty($id)) $id = "/home/vbd/public_html/home.html"; else { $id = $id . ".html"; } if(is_file("$id")){ include("$id"); } else include ("404error.html");?> I'm formatting my links like this: Code: <a href="index.php?id=news">News</a> And heres what's happening, the home page work as it should but none of the links are working.
PHP Includes
I have a configuration file called config.php" that I would like all my pages to have. The problem with it is that I have to include it in all my pages and have to specify the exact directory wherever it's located and I have my files throughout different files in the filesystem and it becomes a tedious job. So my question is, is there a way to have php include the file on all your pages in a specific directory recursivly or is there an apache setting through .htaccess that can maybe pull this off?
Using Includes
I have set up my includes outside the public_html directory in directory phpincludes. When I access index.php in public_html the includes work. I also have a second directory inside public_html, dir2 and want to access these same includes. I've used an .htaccess file to set the path to the includes from public_html. I don't think I need another .htaccess file inside dir2 since I'm under the impression the directives cascade up the root tree. Can someone point me in the right direction. The PHP files are a counter using MySQL. I would like to use them from several different directories.
PHP Includes
Is it necessary to have your file named *.php to use PHP code in it, such as for includes? Can't any extension be used?

Includes
I have 3 files Index.php, x.php and login/Login.php in Login.php <?php require_once "../x.php"; ?> Index.php <?php require_once "loginLogin.php"; ?> when executing Index.php error is Failed opening required '../x.php' I can of course say <?php require_once "x.php" ?> in Login.php, then Index.php would load fine.. However if I load loginLogin.php independently, x.php would not be found. So what should I do?
