Re: [PHP-INSTALL] Fatal error: Call to undefined function...

Well, mysql_connect() wouldn't work, because you didn't install the mysql extension. (You installed the mysqli extension instead, so you need to use functions like mysqli_connect() and mysqli_query()). CreateImageTrueColor() is actually supposed to be ImageCreateTrueColor(), but you have to install GD (--with-gd when configuring) to be able to use it. PEAR actually has nothing to do with this. PEAR is a collection of packages, written in PHP, that allow you to do things without re-inventing the wheel. For information, see http://pear.php.net Joshua A.

For example, <?php echo ‘This works just fine’; ?> works fine. Yet <?php mysql_connect( … ) ?> or <?php CreateImageTrueColor(100, 100) ?> will not work. I receive “Fatal error: Call to undefined function <function name> in <file name>.   It seems as though PHP is not able to find the relevant PEAR functions. Why this is I have no idea and any assistance would be greatly appreciated.   Thanks in advance, Joshua C.
