note 49017 added to function.exif-thumbnail

Great that the thumbnail can be in TIFF format (f.i. Kodak cameras have embedded thumbnail in TIFF) BUT I have not been able to show TIFF as an embedded image in HTML (using the <IMG...> tag). There seems to be no function in PHP to change TIFF to, lets say, JPG. (imagecreatefromstring gives a 'unknown datatype' error for the TIFF stream. So below sample works great for JPEG embedded thumbnail, but not for TIFF embedded (but then, maybe I did something wrong?): test_exif.php: <HTML> <HEAD> <TITLE>Test EXIF Read </TITLE> </HEAD> <BODY> <?php $image='P0000614.JPG'; echo("<B>". $image. "</B>:<BR><BR>\n"); $exif = exif_read_data($image, 'ANY_TAG',true); if (!$exif===false) { echo("Image contains headers<br><br>"); echo("<A href=showthumb.php?image=" . $image ."> <IMG border=0 src=showthumb.php?image=" . $image ."></A><BR><BR>"); foreach ($exif as $key => $section) { foreach ($section as $name => $val) { echo "$key.$name: $val<br>\n"; } } } else { echo("Sorry, image <B>".$image . "</B> does not contain (readable) EXIF data."); } ?> </BODY> </HTML> showthumb.php: <?php $imgdat = exif_thumbnail($_REQUEST['image'],$width, $height, $type); header('Content-type: ' . image_type_to_mime_type($type)); echo($imgdat); ?> When clicking on the <A> opens the TIFF image in the program that windows assigned to this type, but the JPEG opens in the browser. I am using PHP 4.3.6 on windows iis 4 (yeah, I know.....) ---- Manual Page -- http://www.php.net/manual/en/function.exif-thumbnail.php Edit -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=edit+49017 Delete -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes Reason: bad code -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes&reason=bad+code Reason: spam -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes&reason=spam Reason: useless example -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes&reason=useless+example Reason: contains commercial links -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes&reason=contains+commercial+links Reason: useless note -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=delete+49017&report=yes&reason=useless+note Reject -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php?action=reject+49017&report=yes Search -- http://master.php.net/manage/user-notes.php
