Image Resize

[master82 0]

Hello again people,

I've set up a HTML (which includes PHP coding). On the page I have a section called progress which retrieves data from mySQL and displays a percentage as to a users progress.

I was wondering if I could also do this graphically using PHP by having a simple bar image (bar.png) that expands depending upon the percentage.

As the image is a pixel or so wide I was hoping that I could simply change the width of the .png image using PHP code, setting the width to the percentage [ie 50% would make the bar width 50 pixels wide or something like that]

(Hope I said that right - something like all those online games you see with health bars etc)


Thanks in advance

Like this, perhaps?
[code]<?php
$pct = 50; // percent complete retrieved 'somehow'
?>
<img src="bar.png" height="10" width="<?php echo $pct;?>" alt=""/>
[/code]
