I have to create a image using php ( codeigniter) and need to show it in browser. I got a class like follows
<?php if ( ! defined('BASEPATH')) exit('No direct script access allowed');
// class Welcome extends CI_Controller {
class Get_captcha extends CI_Controller {
function __construct()
{
parent::__construct();
$this->load->library('session');
$this->load->library('form_validation');
$this->load->helper(array('form', 'url'));
}
function index()
{
// header('Content-Type: image/png');
Header("Content-type: image/png");
// Create the image
$im = imagecreatetruecolor(400, 30);
// Create some colors
$white = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$grey = imagecolorallocate($im, 128, 128, 128);
$black = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle($im, 0, 0, 399, 29, $white);
// The text to draw
$text = 'Testing...';
// Replace path by your own font path
$font = 'verdana.ttf';
// Add some shadow to the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 11, 21, $grey, $font, $text);
// Add the text
imagettftext($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $black, $font, $text);
// Using imagepng() results in clearer text compared with imagejpeg()
imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);
}
}
When I called http://localhost/tvc/index.php/get_captcha it showing error ..
Please any one help me ?
Thanks
Most likely error has something to do with verdana.ttf not found…
