Thanks Scott The problem was that the IIS Windows install version 4.3 (latest version) doesn't come with the dll for GD.

I have exactly the same problem

I downloaded php 4.3 from that link and installed it.

GD functions do not work.

I do not have a folder for extensions and I don't have any dll's with the install.

Uncommented the suggested lines tell me that the required dll isn't present.

Any suggestions please?

I'm very new to PHP and was looking at a way of uploading a file.

Thanks for the example.

Do you know if there is a way of checking the file end so that I can allow/deny different file types.

ie only allow JPEG, deny any .exe files etc.

Thanks in advance
