here is the code I use to create the image:

/* set up image, the first number is the width and the second is the height*/
$im = ImageCreate(60, 20); 

/*creates two variables to store color*/
$white = ImageColorAllocate($im, 255, 255, 255);
$black = ImageColorAllocate($im, 0, 0, 0);

/*random string generator.*/
/*The seed for the random number*/
srand((double)microtime()*1000000); 

/*Runs the string through the md5 function*/
$string = md5(rand(0,9999)); 

/*creates the new string. */
$new_string = substr($string, 17, 5);
$_SESSION['new_string'] = $new_string;

/*fill image with black*/
ImageFill($im, 0, 0, $black);

/*writes string */
ImageString($im, 4, 9, 3, $new_string, $white);

/* output to browser*/
Imagejpeg($im, "verify.jpeg");
ImageDestroy($im);

SO MY QUESTION IS:

Why does it display the image and work on the first host, and not the other one?

I pasted relevant gd information in hopes that someone can tell me why it doesn't work with the other host.

 

-thank u

I don think we can address your prob. You should check your the other host on your own as we totally do not have any clue.

[dsaba]

you say I should "check" my host on my own

 

thats the problem i do not know what to "check" for, what i assumed to check for was what i listed above, php information and everything related to gd that I could find

 

that is why i posted it, because I did not see anything amiss that might be obvious to other people

so if any of you DO SEE something that explains why the image does not work in one host, based on the information i supplied, then please say so

 

i do not expect you to know without given information, i gave you the information in hopes that you can spot something, if you can't, then something else is seriously wrong with the host, that I may need to email him

[aebstract]

Just go ahead and email them before you go to forums asking for help, you should be able to find out your solutions that way a lot better than through here. Explain to them your problem and what you are trying to do. They may simply tell you it is not possible through them. Good luck.
