Description:
------------
imagepng *crashes* when no color was alocated.

I see no point in rendering blank images, but this functions behavior is buggy. 

All other functions (imagejpeg, imagegif) AND imagepng on true scale images return black image. This is most likely expected result.

Instead, this function flushes some part of header and then crashes with warnings when trying to convert non existing color palette.

GD Version  bundled (2.0.34 compatible)  

Reproduce code:
---------------
<?
$img = imagecreate(500,500);
//header("Content-type: image/png"); // skip this to see the problem, else browser will ignore corrupted image.
imagepng($img);
imagedestroy($img);
?>

Expected result:
----------------
blank black image (like other image* functions) or E_WARNING without junk.

Actual result:
--------------
?PNG  IHDR???M?
Warning: imagepng() [function.imagepng]: gd-png: fatal libpng error: Invalid number of colors in palette in C:\usr\apache\httpd\html\draw.php on line 21

Warning: imagepng() [function.imagepng]: gd-png error: setjmp returns error condition in C:\usr\apache\httpd\html\draw.php on line 21

That's libpng behaviors. A PNG palette image must have colors to be saved.

By the way, warnings are not crashes.

shouldn't it return warning without putting part of header to output?

> shouldn't it return warning without putting part of header to output?

Hm, good point. I may add a check before calling the png function and avoid to much troubles later. I will do it for 5.3+

Well, after a 2nd look, the warning will remain anyway. Whether it is raised by libgd or php does not change anything > won't fix

then

<?
$img = imagecreate(500,500);
@imagepng($img);
imagedestroy($img);
?>

should return empty page..

However, it do not ;)

My bad, you are right!

[PATCH]

A to see if there are any colors associated with the image before outputting the image header.
