Question

How can I put image from the memory to the browser, without saving.

For example:

 function getImage()
 {

   $imageFile = imagecreatefromjpeg('Map.jpg');
   $imageObject = imagecreatefrompng('image2.png');
   imagealphablending($imageFile, true);    
   imagecopy(....);
   $ret = array($imageFile, $imageObject) ;  
   return $ret
 }
 <?php $ret = getImage(); ?>
 <img src = <?php $ret[0];? alt=''>

Is this possible, without saving?

Answer 1

Yes,

Just try imagejpeg($img);

and put into <img src= path to the PHP script which render the image
