# imagecreatefromgif

(PHP 3, PHP 4, PHP 5)

imagecreatefromgif -- Create a new image from file or URL

## Описание

resource imagecreatefromgif ( string filename )

imagecreatefromgif() returns an image identifier representing the image obtained from the given filename.

To ease debugging the following example will produce an error GIF:

Пример 1. Example to handle an error during creation

`<?php
function LoadGif ($imgname)
{
$im = @imagecreatefromgif ($imgname); /* Attempt to open */
if (!$im) { /* See if it failed */
$im = imagecreatetruecolor (150, 30); /* Create a blank image */
$bgc = imagecolorallocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
$tc = imagecolorallocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
imagefilledrectangle ($im, 0, 0, 150, 30, $bgc);
/* Output an errmsg */
imagestring ($im, 1, 5, 5, "Error loading $imgname", $tc);
}
return $im;
}
header("Content-Type: image/gif");
$img = LoadGif("bogus.image");
imagegif($img);
?>`

Результатом выполнения данного примера будет что-то подобное:

> Подсказка: Для этой функции вы можете использовать URL в качестве имени файла, если была включена опция "fopen wrappers". Смотрите более подробную информацию об определении имени файла в описании функции fopen(), а также список поддерживаемых протоколов URL в Прил. M.

## Список параметров

`filename`

  Path to the WBMP image

## Возвращаемые значения

Returns an image resource identifier on success, `FALSE` on errors.

## Примечания

> Замечание: GIF support was removed from the GD library in Version 1.6, and added back in Version 2.0.28. This function is not available between these versions.

Внимание
Версии `PHP` для Windows до PHP 4.3.0 не поддерживают возможность использования удаленных файлов этой функцией даже в том случае, если опция allow_url_fopen включена.

`I wanted to find out if a GIF is Black & White or Color, but I didn't want to wait around for imagecreatefromgif() to parse a 200k file (about 1 second) to get the color map, so I wrote this function to get a list of all the colors in the GIF. Hope it is useful for you.
<?php
function getGIFColorMap($file)
{
$fp = fopen($file, 'r');
$buf = fread($fp, 1024);
fclose($fp);
// Calculate number of colors
// buf[10] is the color info byte
$color_byte = ord($buf[10]);
$has_color_map = ($color_byte >> 7) & 1;
$color_res = (($color_byte >> 4) & 7) + 1;
$bits_per_pixel = ($color_byte & 7) + 1;
$color_count = 1 << $bits_per_pixel;
if (!$has_color_map) return null;
// buf[13] is the beginning of the color map
$color_map_index = 13;
$map = array();
for ($i=0; $i < $color_count; $i++) {
$index = $color_map_index + $i*3;
$r = ord($buf[$index]);
$g = ord($buf[$index + 1]);
$b = ord($buf[$index + 2]);
$map[$i] = array($r, $g, $b);
}
return $map;
}

It could quite easily be modified to count the number of frames if you required.`

`thanks yamasoft for the gif to png lib. it works! but, there is one bug. i changed line 1003 to this:
if(isset($this->m_img->m_bTrans) && $this->m_img->m_bTrans && ($nColors > 0)) {
because i was getting an error that m_bTrans is undefined. i think this is because my gif has no transparency. after i updated this line, there were no problems.
thanks!

`I just installed gif2png on my server, and it took a little research on my part to figure out that this...
passthru("$path/gif2png -O $image_path/image.gif")
will not work if safe mode is on. If you're on a shared server, it probably is. You don't need to turn safe mode off, however, just set the safe_mode_exec_dir variable in your php.ini file to the directory where you installed gif2png. Then you'll be able to execute the program from your PHP script.`

Seems gif2png is no longer at http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/gif2png/
I found a Win32 version at http://www.r1ch.net/stuff/gif2png/
(for the Unix and source, see http://catb.org/~esr/gif2png/ )
In Win32,
passthru("gif2png $filename");
works fine if gif2png.exe is in the path.
It will overwrite the file with .png extension, so be careful,or use temp files as in the post referenced above (without the -O; type "gif2png" at the command line for the options).
I had a problem with exceeding the default 30 second execution time limit in PHP, so I added this line
set_time_limit(0); // some odd gifs take a long time (example, a 25K gif, 700x700, mostly blank)`

`After hours of search, I've finally found a program which can convert JPG to GIF.
IJG - The Independent JPEG Group's JPEG software
Version 6 which support GIF (read and write with LZW)
and the version 6b which support GIF (write only without LZW)
The name of the file is: jpegsrc.v6.tar.gz`

`For users who just want GIF read (not write) support but:
1) Don't want to patch GD libs
2) Don't want to recompile something
3) Don't have permissions to install conversion packages
4) Any other reason...
I created a small php script (around 25KB) which lets you load a GIF from a file (you even can specify the image index on animated GIFs) and then convert it to a PNG or BMP file.
If I take one example:
<?
include("gif.php");
$gif = gif_loadFile("./test.gif");
if($gif) {
// GIF file successfully opened
if(gif_outputAsPNG($gif, "./test.png")) {
// Now, just use ImageCreateFromPng...
$img = ImageCreateFromPng("./test.png");
if($img) {
header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");
ImageJPEG($img);
ImageDestroy($img);
}
else {
// Could NOT open PNG
}
}
else {
// Could NOT convert GIF to PNG...
}
}
else {
// GIF not loaded...
}
?>
Of course, it's slower than using appropriate software and/or libraries but it's quite useful for reading occasionaly some GIF files.
You'll find the gif.php source code at: http://www.yamasoft.com/php-gif.zip

`FreeBSD users are lucky to have the option of compiling GIF support in GD2.x through the ports system.
All you need to do is to export the "WITH_LZW=yes" global variable when compiling the graphics/gd2 port, e.g.:
# cd /usr/ports/graphics/gd2
# export WITH_LZW=yes
# make && make install
Then recompile and (re)install the www/mod_php4 port and you are in business... :)
Good luck!`

`If GD doesn't support GIFs & gif2png is not available & you are not an administrator, you can install it in your account like this:
create do.php:
<?
global $do;
passthru($do);
?>
then upload gif2png-2.4.6.tar.gz, unpack and install it:
do.php?do=tar+-xvzf+gif2png-2.4.6.tar.gz
do.php?do=gif2png-2.4.5/configure
do.php?do=make
Then remove all files except gif2png. Don't forget to remove do.php as it is a serious security hole in your system.
Njoy!

`Since gif support is removed from the more recent GD libraries, you can still use it via an external program.
I've read somewhere about using ImageMagick and I tried myself but it's a quite big package and needs the X11 libs which are not available in some servers.
The other option I found is to use a little prog "gif2png" http://www.tuxedo.org/~esr/gif2png/
to convert gif files to png ones. It works under Unix and dos/win32/winnt and is very straightforward.
If you need to modify an user uploaded gif file to save it into your site just use this:
$path=$_FILES["photo"]["tmp_name"];
passthru("/usr/bin/gif2png -d -O ".$path);
$src_img=imagecreatefrompng( dirname($path)."/".basename($path, ".gif").".png");
This will convert the gif to a png and delete the gif file, then it will open the png with the GDlib so you can perform any operation on it.`

`I just thought I'd let you guys know of a workaround for the lack of Gif support in the latest GD...aside from adding the patch. It works just as good, from what I can tell, and is quite nice ;)
Here goes:
<?
//Just grab some general image info
$img = "path/to/image.gif";
$imageInfo = GetImagesize($img);
if ( $imageInfo[2] == 1 ) {
//it's a gif
$file = fread(fopen($path, "r"), filesize($path));
$fileHeader = "image/gif";
Header("Content-Type: ".$fileHeader);
echo $file;
fclose($file);
}
?>
basically what that does is reads the file..through the "GetImageSize", which still returns if it's a GIF or not, (thank god), then if it's a gif, opens the file through normal filestream, sets the header to image type "gif" then prints it out. Same as doing "ImageCreateFromGif($img)" and "ImageGif($img)", except that it doesn't require GD Gif support. If you have any questions just ask me via email (chuckg@infinite9.com)`
