Note Submitter: jeff [dot] jbrowns [at] com ---- Looking at this I feel it is a good idea and as they said it will load much quicker. Although I feel giving the file name and the file type is a little redundant. A simple modification would solve this, also with a little more friendly error message on fail: <?php function base64_encode_image ($imagefile) { $imgtype = array('jpg', 'gif', 'png'); $filename = file_exists($imagefile) ? htmlentities($imagefile) : die('Image file name does not exist'); $filetype = pathinfo($filename, PATHINFO_EXTENSION); if (in_array($filetype, $imgtype)){ $imgbinary = fread(fopen($filename, "r"), filesize($filename)); } else { die ('Invalid image type, jpg, gif, and png is only allowed'); } return 'data:image/' . $filetype . ';base64,' . base64_encode($imgbinary); } ?>
