The change should be available in PHP 4.3.x, where the functions availbility could be checked with functions_exists(). There is also a function named gd_info() which provides version information in PHP 4.3.x. Prior to this I think you'll have to create something which parses the output from phpinfo() for more information. For further assistance on that, contact php-general@lists.php.net. -- mats
