I know this will be really simple, but I'm struggling to get my head round the use of imagedestroy() I have some code which uploads an image, resizes to create a smaller image and thumbnail then deletes the source image. My question is which images need to be destroyed?

Straight from the manual: imagedestroy() frees any memory associated with image image. image is the image identifier returned by one of the image create functions, such as imagecreatetruecolor() So any time you call imagecreate* functions you need to also do an imagedestroy. In your case you need to add imagedestroy($target_id); imagedestroy($source_id); just before imagejpeg ($target_id,"$targetfile",$jpegqual); return true; } -- Postgresql & php tutorials http://www.designmagick.com/
