Not challenging. There's a code sample in the PHP Manual that does just that. :wink:

(but I won't tell you where)

Lol :P

You didn't got me right, i gave an example... I meant to something like compatision, the best script will win.
The "mission" can be some class building or somethimg, but not just one, but a challenging one.


Now you got me right?

Challenges are a great way to improve your coding skills.. but posting them on a forum such as this is tricky. Everyone is at a different sort of level. Take your initial example .. changing the height/width of an image .. that's the sort of thing I can do in my sleep (I run http://www.phpgd.com ..) .. but other people here might find that a real struggle if they're just starting out.

If you want to post a challenge you need to specify what sort of level you're aiming it at.

You know, this reminds me of a text-parsing challenge between a stack-based parser versus regexps solution a while back... viewtopic.php?t=36790
