The following code works in 4.0.6 but doesn't in 4.1.1

Both are compiled with the same flags:
--with-freetype --with-gd --with-ttf

For 4.1.1 I added:
--enable-gd-native-ttf --with-freetype-dir=/usr

( you need a font to test this. In this case - shelley.ttf )

<?php
Header ("Content-type: image/png");
$im = imagecreate (400, 30);
$black = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 0, 0, 0);
$white = ImageColorAllocate ($im, 255, 255, 255);
ImageTTFText ($im, 20, 0, 10, 20, $white, "shelley.ttf",
              "Testing... Omega: &#937;");
ImagePNG($im);
ImageDestroy ($im);
?>

What error message do you get when running this
code?
 [2002-02-15 09:50 UTC] reweiner at yahoo dot com 
No errors. Just a black square.

Remove the header line and take a look at the output. You will probably see the error now ....

I have come across the same issue on Win2K running PHP4.1.1.
The code worked in 4.0.6 though.

The error message I am getting (if I comment out the ImagePNG line) is a strange one:
Warning: ??O in (file) on line 6

Those funny characters (if you can see them) are what PHP outputs - they seem to be fairly random though - sometimes I get different funny characters.

Tried with PHP 4.1.2. It still doesn't work.

Tried with PHP 4.1.2 on Win2K/Apache - still doesn't work - still getting those funny characters as the error message I noted earlier on.

Again, unfortunately no messages. Just the black square.

Just tried using 4.2.0RC1 on Win2K/Apache - seems to be working fine.

Closing then
