Save the image as a file. Then html src="filename" Dave M G <martin@xxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: PHP list, I've looked at the manual entries for imagepng() and imagecreatetruecolor() functions for helping me to create a temporary image for a CAPTCHA system. However, I'm clearly messing up, as what I'm outputting is a bunch of ASCII gibberish to the screen. What I think I need to do in principle is first create the image with imagecreatetruecolor(), then define it as a PNG (?), then display it. So I've got something like this: $image = ImageCreate($width, $height); ImageFill($image, 0, 0, $black); echo '' . "\n"; ImageDestroy($image); As mentioned, this isn't working, so there's a fundamental concept about how PHP creates and displays images that I'm not getting. I'm trying to output an image that, ideally, won't be stored as a file. Or, if it has to be a temporary file, to delete it immediately after displaying it. What part am I not understanding?
