note 82912 added to function.imagecreatefromgif

Someone wanted to display only the first frame of an animated .gif I thought maybe if the animated .gif was displayed as a .png, it would only display the first frame. This worked very good: The HTML used to display image: <img src="giftopng.php?image=mypic.gif" alt="" /> The test script called: "giftopng.php" <?php //Get image name from URL $image=$_GET['image']; //Load the image $img = ImageCreateFromGif($image); //Convert to PNG and send it to browser if($img) { header("Content-Type: image/png"); ImagePNG($img); //Clean-up memory ImageDestroy($img); } ?> ---- Server IP: 64.71.164.2 Probable Submitter: 192.28.2.45 ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.imagecreatefromgif.php Edit -- https://master.php.net/note/edit/82912 Del: integrated -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/integrated Del: useless -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/useless Del: bad code -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/bad+code Del: spam -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/spam Del: non-english -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/non-english Del: in docs -- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912/in+docs Del: other reasons-- https://master.php.net/note/delete/82912 Reject -- https://master.php.net/note/reject/82912 Search -- https://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
