Hi there.

I'm looking to replace a php script with either newer php or a javascript.
# Name: ButtonServer
# Version: 1.0A
# Author : Robert Manuel
# Last Updated: 21 Oct 1999

It takes an exisitnig .gif and places some text defined in the url query on top of the image and creates it as a new gif, to be used as a button.

Problem is, the new server for the sites is now using php4.3x and the GD dll's in php no longer support creation of gifs, so the variables in the php3 script are returned as unknown.
Tried using the older dll's as extensions, but it just hangs.

Anyone know of a newer script that can do the same job?
