getimagesize()

[dagger2002]

Hey all I have a hopefully quick question.

I have a site that I am building. I have a right bar that is pulling from a mysql db, version 4, and php, version 4.

I am using the getimagesize() command on a path from the db. But I am getting the following error

Fatal error: Only variables can be passed by reference in /home/globalai/public_html/dev/current/includes/right.php on line 82

here is line 82

$path = $website . substr($row2[pic_path], 27, 100);
$size = getimagesize($path, 3);

$website is just the url to the public directory.

Any Ideas?

Thanks All

the problem is that you are using the getImageSize function incorrectly.

the php manual gives a description of the function parameters as follows:

array getimagesize ( string $filename [, array &$imageinfo] )

this means that if you want the imageinformation you must pass a variable as the second argument. the integer "3" cannot be used as a variable. If you do not need the extended information, just pass the filename.
