note 31411 added to function.exif-imagetype

Hey windozers, It's worthy of note that on the windows platform, a lot of functions aren't compiled into the default build of php. The exif functions, for example (ie. exif_imagetype), aren't included. But fret not. Don't listen to the BS you'll find out through google. You don't need to download any compilers or patches or anything frightening like that, just do this: Download the Windows ZIP package from http://www.php.net/downloads.php (You MUST use the ZIP package because the default "auto-installer" version does not contain any extensions). Unzip the package to a temporary directory and copy whatever file you need (in this case, extension\php_exif.dll) from there into your php folder (C:\PHP). Open PHP.INI in your Windows directory, find this line: ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; ; Dynamic Extensions ; ;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;; Below that find this line: ;extension=php_exif.dll ... and uncomment it by removing the ; No need to reset iis or reboot or anything. Just refresh the page and watch it work. -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exif-imagetype.php http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+31411 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+31411 http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+31411
