Hi, Is there a way to dynamically generate an image from a PHP script? I have a script that takes a variable in, uses it to get information from the DB, runs through a script and produces a PNG at the end of it all - the script is accessed as an image through standard HTML <img src="script.php?...

If you're copying directly, you might want to use:

Code: Select all

$new_name = $username;

in lieu of your mosGetParam request.

You're missing a ';' from the end of one of the lines. Check you've got them all complete and you should be good to go.

In J!1.0 you need to use:

Code: Select all

global $my;

$userid = $my->id;
$username = $my->username;

In J!1.5 you need to use:

Code: Select all

$user =& JFactory::getUser();

$userid = $user->get('id');
$username = $user->get('username');

Hope this helps.

Hi,

In J!1.5 the code:

Code: Select all

JToolBarHelper::help( 'screen.banners' );

shows the Banner Component's help screen.

How can this be customised? Putting a URL in there just brings up a screen with 'Key Not Found' in there.

Cheers,

Seem to have found the source of this problem. Turns out that the model that the view was referring to didn't have a PHP terminator at the end of it. I had: <?php class ComponentModelView extends JModel { //Code in here } when I should have had: <?php class ComponentModelView extends JModel { //Code...
