J!1.5 - Dynamic Images
Posted: Sun Feb 24, 2008 8:45 pm
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?gr=182&etc=123720347096">.
I need to convert this for use within a Joomla component. Can I use the Joomla 1.5 framework for the script? All the data is held within the Joomla database.
Haven't had a lot of success thus far...
