Good Morning, Freaks, I hope you're all well. I've a question - I've been researching coding image resize functionality. While looking into the functions I'd need to do this I came across very similar code used in examples from 3 different sources so decided this was good code to learn from. So I tweeked it a bit and put it into a class method -> public function imageResize($target, $newcopy, $w, $h, $ext) { list($orig_w, $orig_h) = getimagesize($target); $scale_ratio = $orig_w/$orig_h; if(($w / $h) > $scale_ratio) { $w = $h * $scale_ratio; } else { $h = $w / $scale_ratio; } $img = ""; if($ext == "gif" || $ext == "GIF") { $img = imagecreatefromgif($target); } else if($ext == "png" || $ext == "PNG") { $img = imagecreatefrompng($target); } else if($ext == "jpg" || $ext == "JPG" || $ext == "jpeg" || $ext == "JPEG") { $img = imagecreatefromjpeg($target); } $create_tci = imagecreatetruecolor($w, $h); imagecopyresampled($create_tci, $img, 0, 0, 0, 0, $w, $h, $orig_w, $orig_h); imagejpeg($create_tci, $newcopy, 80); } and then connected it to a button -> <?php require("assets/initializations.php"); if(isset($_POST['upload_image'])) { $image_obj = new Image($conn, $user); $image_obj->imageUpload(); } else if(isset($_POST['resize_image'])) { mysqli_report(MYSQLI_REPORT_ERROR|MYSQLI_REPORT_STRICT); $image_obj = new Image($conn, $user); $kaboom = explode(".", $image_name); //object params $image_ext = $kaboom[-1]; $target_image = "/opt/lampp/htdocs/site/admin/img/$image_name"; $resized_image = "/opt/lampp/htdocs/site/admin/img/resized_$image_name"; $max_w = 150; $max_h = 150; $image_obj->imageResize($target_image, $resized_image, $max_w, $max_h, $image_ext); //header("Location: add_photo.php"); } ?> Setup: A preview button chooses the image, a preview which is displayed underneath it (using js). There's also an upload button to bring it into the sites file system. This functionality works fine. I've just added the resize button beside the preview button and connected the object method to it. Intended Result: The resize button resizes the previewed image and the resized image is now previewed instead of the original image. Result: Nothing. The button stays in the active state, but nothing happens. I get no warning nor error messages and absolutely nothing in dev tools to work from. Not sure what my next step would be outside asking more experienced coders Any advise or guidance on getting this resolved would be met with appreciation. TIA
