Hello, I've created a simple script that takes in image and draws some lines and some text on top of it. I am having a problem with the text part of this. When the string that I am drawing on the image contains and apostrophe ( ' ) there is always a backslash ( \ ) before it. It make sense that it is the escape character, but I need to be able to show the apostrophe. Anyone have any ideas about this? <?php $backdir = "/var/www/html/backgrounds/"; $im = ImageCreatefromJPEG($backdir.$_GET['background']); $textcolor = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255); $font = "/var/www/html/fonts/arial.ttf"; imagepolygon($im, array(36, 24, 36, 456, 684, 456, 684, 24), 4, $textcolor); imagepolygon($im, array(72, 48, 72, 432, 648, 432, 648, 48), 4, $textcolor); maketext($im, 30, 0, 360, 240, $textcolor, $font, $_GET['toparea']); Header("Content-type: image/jpeg"); Imagejpeg($im); imagedestroy($im); ?> -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
