If it is a GD problem, your only choice is to update GD and recompile PHP.

Can you show a short code snippet which demonstrates the problem?

$red = imagecolorallocate($mapIm,75,134,38);
$green = imagecolorallocate($mapIm,43,110,75);
imageline($mapIm,10,10,20,20,$red);
imageline($mapIm,20,20,20,20,$green);

// the red works but the green is white, and if i do...

if($green=imagecolorallocate($mapIm,43,110,75)==-1)
{
print "it dont work";
}

it gives the error, also if i turn round the red and green then green works but red doesnt.

thanx

It looks to me like you're using all the functions correctly.

What version of GD is your installation of PHP using?

FYI the older versions of GD do have gif support but it is the newer ones that don't -> due to copyright law and this kind of think.

However the gif patent or something runs out in 2004 so it should become available again from them. probably.
