[SOLVED] function help.

Recommended Posts

I tried this before, but I deleted it after I made it and it didn't work, but it wasn't anything big, so I'll show you what I tried, I have an image creating script using GD, and there are several different outcomes, so I used a switch. However I'm repeating the thing in the file over and over with every case, and there's only 1 thing different with each case, so I decided that it would be best to use a function. I tried something like this:

 

function createpet($url){
$im = imagecreatefrompng('$url');
$bg = imagecolorallocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$textcolor2 = imagecolorallocate($im, 0, 0, 0);
$img_w = imagesx($im);
$img_h = imagesy($im);

imagestring($im, $font_size, round(($img_w/2)-((strlen($name)*imagefontwidth($font_size))/2), 1), 5, $name, $textcolor2);
imagestring($im, $font_size, round(($img_w/2)-((strlen($levelout)*imagefontwidth($font_size))/2), 1), round(($img_h)-25), $levelout, $textcolor2);


header('Content-type: image/png');

$x = imagecolorat($im, 0,0);
imagecolortransparent($im, $x);

imagepng($im);
imagedestroy($im);    
}

//Then using the switch, I tried this..

switch($type){
case "moglo":
function createpet("moglo.png");
break;
}

 

Am I doing something wrong with the function?

switch($type){
case "moglo":
function createpet("moglo.png");
break;
}

 

should be

 

switch($type){
case "moglo":
    createpet("moglo.png");
break;
}

 

Opz, I just made that mistake when rewriting it, I didn't have that before.

 

And that problem the other person mentioned, would that only cause problems with functions?Because when I don't use the function, and just rewrite the code for every case, there's no problem.

single-quoting a var would cause trouble regardless of where it is positioned in the code. if when you rewrite the code, you subsitute $url with an actual path, then yeah, you'd only have the problem in the function.

 

EDIT: correction - if the singel-quotes are in turn double-quoted, the var will be treated properly. example:

$var = "bla";
echo '$var'; //outputs $var

echo "'$var'"; //outputs 'bla'
