Using libGD to output an image in another page

[unknown365]

 

Hi! I have a PHP function which I use to resize the images that I get from the database.

These are the functions inside my getImage.php:

 

function resize($image){

    $background = imagecreatetruecolor(116,84);

    $source = imagecreatefromjpeg($image);

    $width= imagesx($source);

    $height = imagesy($source);

    header("Content-type: image/jpeg");

 

    if($width>$height){

        imagecopyresampled($background,$source,0,0,0,0,116,84,$width,$height);

        imagejpeg($background);

        imagedestroy($background);

    }

    else{

        imagefill($background,0,0,imagecolorallocate($background, 255, 255, 80));

        imagecopyresampled($background,$source,20,0,0,0,75,84,$width,$height);

        imagejpeg($background);

        imagedestroy($background);

    }

}

 

 

function getImage($id){

  $query="SELECT i.filepath FROM users u, items i

              WHERE u.userid=i.userid AND u.userid=$id";

  $res = mysql_query($query);

 

  while ($obj = mysql_fetch_object($res)) {

      $file = $obj->filepath;

      return resize($file);

  }

}

 

Basically, I don't have any problems with resizing the image. My problem is that whenever I try to call this function to output in another page either by using <img src="<?=getImage($id)?>" border="0"> OR <img src="getImage.php" border="0">, the image does not show itself. It's as if I didn't call any image. Please help!

 

By the way, I really need the getImage.php to output the image to another page.
