Re: Apache Crashes when using ImageTTFText()

Dear Rasmus I mean absolutly no offense to you or any of the PHP-team. Actually you have my absolute respect, though I know how hard it is running such a project. Concerning the bug, or not a bug, in PHP 4.06 Win32 version. The ImageTTFText() function simply doesn't work if you want to use it like you are used to. I did not know any details about that PHP just looks for the TTF file somewhere else. ( Where ??) I was looking around in the newsgroups and on the net, and the only solution I found was that everybody said: 'Use PHP 4.05, there's something wrong with the GD-Lib in PHP 4.06'.. Maybe you should write an errata entry in the PHP manual you provide on PHP.net just for that Windoze users know how the have to deal with this problem. Me myself use the windoze-version only for developing and have it running on my notebook. My website is running under Linux, of course :) and there everything is just fine :) My kind regards to the whole PHP team! - Oliver rasmus@php.net (Rasmus Lerdorf) wrote in news:Pine.LNX.4.33.0109230143280.1104-100000@rasmus.php.net: > What bugs in 4.0.6?
