    text
    copied!<p>I have created a script to resize images and insert dynamically in <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> tags something like:</p> <pre><code>&lt;img src="includes/thumb.php?src=&lt;?=$filename;?&gt;&amp;w=389&amp;q=100&amp;f=jpg" /&gt; </code></pre> <p>In the thumb.php, I resize image using php gd functions and finally <code>include</code> it so that it shows the resized image for the image where thumb.php is called in inside <code>&lt;img&gt;</code> tag.</p> <p>This is how I include the image from thumb.php:</p> <pre><code>//header('Content-Type: image/' . $format); //header('Content-Disposition: inline;'); include $resized_image; // which is now resized and saved </code></pre> <p>However it doesn't always work for all images, sometimes I receive the message:</p> <pre><code>Parse error: syntax error, unexpected ']' in xxxxx\thumbs\ e58b3c96d4f2ccc298d68cbac7cd97a0.jpg on line 326 </code></pre> <p>So as can be seen the parse error comes in newly resized image when I try to <code>include</code> it. But when I open image directly by double clicking it, it shows up fine and is a valid image.</p> <p>Can anyone tell me why PHP is parsing the image file just like php code, I want to avoid that and show the image instead?</p> <p>All I want to do is just show the resized image like this:</p> <pre><code>&lt;img src="includes/thumb.php?src=&lt;?=$filename;?&gt;&amp;w=389&amp;q=100&amp;f=jpg" /&gt; </code></pre>
