toyartist Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 Hello, Please only serious replies to many wise asses wanting to slam people for asking questions is so played out! OK with that said, I'm not sure how to approach this problem, so I thought Id look here for expert advise. I need to build a website were a user can enter a URL and bring it up in a frame or window on the site and edit or crop the image and take a snap shot to email to another party. This all need to happen on the site and not from the users end(does that make sense?) I know PHP might not be the ideal, cant anyone offer some real advise? would flash or java be a better place to start?

genericnumber1 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 PHP is server-side, so not only is it not ideal, it's not possible to do this in PHP (at least not wholly). You could use flash or java, and I've also seen some Javascript image cropping scripts as well. I'd try seeing if you can get a javascript one working for you before you resort to something the user is required to download like a flash or java program.

genericnumber1 Posted March 3, 2009 Share Posted March 3, 2009 If you use jQuery, I've always been fond of Jcrop http://deepliquid.com/content/Jcrop.html Link to comment https://forums.phpfreaks.com/topic/147687-help-i-need-to-know-if-this-is-possible/#findComment-775232 Share on other sites More sharing options...
