Note Submitter: stephan dot klein at gmx dot at ---- I was looking for a function to determine whether a variable is a valid image ressource. After a bit of thinking I came up with this pretty fast solution: <?php function is_gd_handle($var) { ob_start(); imagecolorallocate($var, 255, 255, 255); $error = ob_get_contents(); ob_end_clean(); if(preg_match('/not a valid Image resource/',$error)) { return false; } else { return true; } } ?> Hope it saved somebody some time!
