Ok, I bought a few php scripts that use image magic.......
I tried to set it up with no luck so I bought the book "the definitive guide to imagemagick"
I followed the instructions on how to install it.. then did the end of installation test
ie: convert logo: logo.miff
imdisplay logo.miff
this worked fine with both the .dll version and the static version....
I also added to the /php/extensions library all the .dll files needed
for magic wand to operate.. all this off the www.imagemagick.com website..
now i run the php code and it gives no errors.....
problem is.. all the pictures are not showing, I am just getting outlines..
this totally sucks and has cost me time and money and i still can't figure it out.
I'm using windows xp pro with apache 2.0 and php 4.04
can anyone tell me what it is i am doing wrong and how to fix it??
exact instructions would be appreciated...
I'm pretty sure it's the php.ini files and the apache config files but it is not listed anywhere in the book.. what a waste of 69 dollars
