This will only work if the "gd" entry is last in the array, as you don't exit the loop
after setting $installed to true. Plus a foreach loop would be better; and
initialising before the loop would be more efficient, too:
$installed = false;
foreach ($array as $extn):
if ("gd" == $extn):
$installed = true;
break;
endif;
endforeach;
But, even better, why not just use in_array():
$installed = in_array("gd", $array);
> if ($installed = true) echo "yeah... GD installed";
Arrgh! Firstly, this will assign true to $installed, then decide that's true (!) and
echo "yeah" -- you should have used == not =. Secondly, there is *never* any need to
use the comparison "== true" -- again that's just forcing PHP to do unnecessary work
(since the thing you're comparing to true must evaluate to true for the comparison to
succeed and return true, you can omit the comparison and just use the raw value in the
test).

if ($installed) echo "yeah";
else echo "nope";
