Image processing and GD functions are used to create and manipulate image files in different image formats including GIF, PNG, JPEG, WBMP, and XPM. PHP can deliver the output image directly to the browser. The image processing and GD functions are used to compile the image functions for this work. It can also require other libraries, depending on the image formats.
Example: This example illustrates the imagecolorclosesthwb() functions in PHP.
PHP
<?php // Create new image from given URL $image = imagecreatefromgif( // Display the index of color echo 'Hue White and Blackness closest color index: ' . imagecolorclosesthwb( $image , 5, 165, 10); imagedestroy( $image ); ?> |
Output:
Hue White and Blackness closest color index: 42
